below is the version of this song I have. But it seems fragmentary. Only 2 verses ? Ta MIDNIGHT ON THE WATER (Ron Kavana) I never thought much of that fancy dancing With my two left feet and my roving eye. But when the band plays that slow air in three-four time, I could dance with my darling until morning comes. Chorus: Play me a fiddle tune, sing me a song! Banish misfortune, my time is not long! Midnight on the water, so steady and slow. The lark in the morning, one more for the road. Midnight on the water, so steady and slow. Let's have another drink and set them up Joe. Well, I've done all my dancing down in those bar-rooms. Cos dancing and drinking they go hand in glove. So give a beer to the fiddler, and play all the old tunes So I can dance closer to the one that I love!
