Johnny Logan - Lannigans Ball текст песни

Текст песни Lannigans Ball - Johnny Logan



In the town of Athy, one Jeremy Lannigan battered away till he hadn't a shilling
His father died and made him a man again, left him a farm and ten acres of land
Myself to be sure, I got invitations, for all the boys and girls I might ask,
Having been asked, my friends and relations, they danced like bees around a sweet cake
Six long months I spent in Dublin, six long month doing nothing at all.
Six long months I spent in Dublin, learning to dance for Lannigan's Ball
She stepped out, I stepped in again. I stepped out and she stepped in again
She stepped out, I stepped in again. Learning to dance for Lannigan's Ball
There was lashings of drink, wine fort he ladies, potatoes and cake, bacon and tea
Nolans and Dolans, alle the O Grady's, courting the girls and dancing away.
Songs went round as plenty as water, the harp that once sounded through Tara's old hall
Biddie Grey and the rat catchers daughter, singing together at Lannigan's Ball
Six long months I spent in Dublin, six long month doing nothing at all.
Six long months I spent in Dublin, learning to dance for Lannigan's Ball
She stepped out, I stepped in again. I stepped out and she stepped in again
She stepped out, I stepped in again. Learning to dance for Lannigan's Ball
In the midst of the row miss Kerrigan fainted, God though her cheeks were as red as a rose
The boys all said, they were sure she was painted, she'd taken a small drop too much, I suppose.
Her boyfried Ned Morgan, powerful and able, when he saw his darling stretched out by the wall.
Tore the left leg from und the table and battered the Chaneys at Lannigan's Ball
Six long months I spent in Dublin, six long month doing nothing at all.
Six long months I spent in Dublin, learning to dance for Lannigan's Ball
She stepped out, I stepped in again. I stepped out and she stepped in again
She stepped out, I stepped in again. Learning to dance for Lannigan's Ball
Boys oh boys tis then there was ructions, I got a belt from Phelim McHugh
I replied to his introduction and kicked up a terrible hullabaloo
Maloney the piper was near getting smothered, they leapt on his pipes, bellows, chanter and all.
Boy and girls, they all got entangled and that put an end to Lannigan's Ball
Six long months I spent in Dublin, six long month doing nothing at all.
Six long months I spent in Dublin, learning to dance for Lannigan's Ball
She stepped out, I stepped in again. I stepped out and she stepped in again
She stepped out, I stepped in again. Learning to dance for Lannigan's Ball
