Oh then tell me Dan O'Donnell, tell me why you hurry so
Hush mo bhuachaill answers Daniel, drawin' in a lung o' blow
I've got the word the session's startin' and you'd better get there soon
For the crack will soon be ninety at the risin' of the moon

At the risin' of the moon, the risin' of the moon
For the crack will soon be ninety at the risin' of the moon

O, then tell me Dan, mo bhuachaill, where the session is to be
In the campsite by the churchyard in the townland of Drumcree
There'll be zouk's and there'll be bodhrans, there'll be fiddles and Lambegs
There'll be Mundies, there'll be Buckfast and we'll drain the very dregs

We'll drain the very dregs, we'll drain the very dregs
There'll be Mundies, there'll be Buckfast and we'll drain the very dregs

There'll be Christy, there'll be Enya, there'll be Gino, there'll be Shane
This festival will equal any Lisdoon, any Slane
There'll be Van and there'll be Brendan Shine, Phil Begley, Sue McCann
We'll have ourselves a hooley in the town that spans the Bann

In the town that spans the Bann, in the town that spans the Bann
We'll have ourselves a hooley in the town that spans the Bann

There'll be Ringo on the bodhran, there'll be Arty on guitar
Cara, Máire, Sinead Quinn, every one a star
Tomás Mór and Dickie Rock, The Pecker and Jake Burns
Every hallion roarin' drunk, while waitin' for their turn

While waitin' for their turn, while waitin' for their turn
Every hallion roarin' drunk, while waitin' for their turn

There'll be Donal, there'll be Sharon, Liam Óg and Mary Black
Ray Lynam and Dick Gaughan, Ernie Badness and Barnbrack
There'll be helicopters, spotter planes, and water cannons too
In case Sinead O'Connor tries her hand at the Seán-Nós Nua

Tries her hand at the Seán-Nós Nua, tries her hand at the Seán-Nós Nua
In case Sinead O'Connor tries her hand at the Seán-Nós Nua
