Joyce Country Cili Band Lyrics

Artist: The Saw Doctors
Album: Songs from Sun Street

A group of young musicians including the Walsh sisters from Crimtin East, used to assemble in Clonbur, in Joyce Country, almost every second Friday night, Pearse christened them the Joyce Country ceili Band, hence the song.

Weâ‚¬â„¢re the Joyce country ceili band
Playing away and weâ‚¬â„¢re doing grand
Weâ‚¬â„¢re singing a song wonâ‚¬â„¢t you give us a hand
â‚¬Ëœcos weâ‚¬â„¢re 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 thereâ‚¬â„¢s hardly anyone listening yet

Thomas and Mary out on the floor
Well they never lost it, thatâ‚¬â„¢s for sure
in his sparking shoes and his daz-white shirt
Sheâ‚¬â„¢s got a brand new perm
And a pleated skirt

We do doâ‚¬â„¢s 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
Thereâ‚¬â„¢s a princess on the floor all night
She can fairly throw them shapes alright
Howya madge are you on you own?
Howâ‚¬â„¢reya fixed far a seat back home
