Were the Joyce country ceili band

Playing away and were doing grand

Were singing a song wont you give us a hand

Cos were the Joyce Country Ceili Band



Friday night , off we go

Tune the fiddle , strain the bow

Take it handy for the first few sets

Sure theres hardly anyone listening yet



And we're the Joyce Country Ceili Band

Playing away and were doing grand

Were singing a song wont you give us a hand

cos were the Joyce Country Ceili Band



Thomas and Mary out on the floor

Well they never lost it, thats for sure

In his sparking shoes and his daz-white shirt

Shes got a brand new perm

And a pleated skirt



And we're the Joyce Country Ceili Band

Playing away and were doing grand

Were singing a song wont you give us a hand

Cos were the Joyce Country Ceili Band



We do dos and functions

Weddings and wakes

Meats and salads, buns and cakes

Well if you need a few tunes just give us a call

For the house the pub or the parish hall



And we're the Joyce Country Ceili Band

Playing away and were doing grand

Were singing a song wont you give us a hand

Cos were the Joyce Country Ceili Band



Theres a princess on the floor all night

She can fairly throw them shapes alright

Howya madge are you on you own?

Howya fixed far a seat back home



And we're the Joyce Country Ceili Band

Playing away and were doing grand

Were singing a song wont you give us a hand

Cos were the Joyce Country Ceili Band



Yes we're the Joyce Country Ceili Band
