Subject: RE: Review: If Bob Dylan was Irish From: Jim Lad Date: 12 Apr 07 - 02:27 AM Paddy Dylan's "Times They are a Changing" Come gather round people wherever you be And I'll sing you a verse of "The Rose of Tralee" And if you know three chords you can play it with me Coz I'm not too big on arranging And I hope you don't mind If I sing out of key For my voice it keeps a changing. Come Fiddlers Come whistlers come Mandolins all And we'll play in a circle, our backs to the wall And if some wee girl dances We'll all have a ball Coz we love to see pretty young maidens And if I play a bum note Don't blame me at all For my strings they need a changing. Come Fathers Come Mothers and raise up your glass Oh my God poor ould Paddy just fell on his arse He'll be cursing tomorrow, his leg in a cast And his wife will surely be raging. Oh and once I was slow Now I'm singing real fast For my underwear needs a changing! Jim Brannigan |

"And we'll play in a circle, our backs to the wall" - Hmmm - I guess we're sitting in a round room! But, come to think, sounds like something O'Dylan would say! |
Subject: RE: Review: If Bob Dylan was Irish From: Jim Lad Date: 12 Apr 07 - 04:39 PM Though I know that British Empire should be banished from this land, With their rifles in their hands And I'm to stoned to stand so I'll try creeping. And sometimes it amazes me, I'm standing on my feet, I can hardly keep the beat And if you think I can sing you must be dreaming. Hey! Mr. Mandoleen Man, play a song for me. Too Ra Loo Ra Lee....... |
