05 Aug 99 - 11:19 PM (#102711) Subject: Lyr Add: THE ROLLICKING BOYS AROUND TANDRAGEE From: Big Mick Your wish is my command, Erinmaidin: Tandragee Good luck to all now barring the cat That sits in the corner a smelling the rat Ah quit your philandering boys and behave And saving your presence I'll chance you will stay I come from the land where the praties grow big And the girls neat and handy can dance a fine jig The boys they will charm your heart for to see They're wonderful fella's round Tandragee Chorus: Here's to the boys that are happy and gay Singing and dancing and tearing away Rollicksome, frolicsome, frisky and free With rollicking boys around Tandragee The oul juaunting cars, the elegant jolt And Derry's the place that is famed for the holt Among the green bushes that the grow in Tyrone And County Fermanagh for mussel and bone For feasting and blarney and fun at the bar There's none can compare with the Rakes of Kildare Green Erin me country the gem of the sea But the gem of oul Ireland is Tandragee Chorus: No doubt you've all heard of Killarney I'm sure And sweet Inishowen for a drop of the pure Dublin's the place for the Strawberry Beds And Donnybrook Fair for the crackin of heads! Did you ere see an Irishman dancing poltóg(freely, wildly) Oh he faces his partner and turns up his brogue Shakes at the buckle and bends at the knee Oh, wonderful dancers 'round Tandragee Chorus: Now where is the man either Christian or Turk Could equal the bold Robert Emmet or Burke Where is the lawyer could speak of Black Dan There's divil another, bad luck to the one And where is the singer could sing like Tom Moore Oh, his melodies charm every care from your door We'll beat them all yet, boys and that you will see Sure we're rarin' fine fellas round Tandragee Chorus:
