fiddler’s green – limerick style lyrics
[verse 1]
there was a pretty young lady, pretty lady named bright
my god she travelled so much faster, so much faster than light
and when she set out one day
in a relative way
was gone and came back, and came back the previous night
[verse 2]
there was a sp-nky young man, a brave fellow from lyme
my god he married three wives, oh three wives at a time
when asked “why a third?”
he replied “one’s absurd!
and bigamy, sir, is a terrible crime!”
[pre-chorus]
two wives at a time?
what a terrible crime!
[chorus]
come with me – we’ll follow you!
down to limerick town, going round and round
come with me – we’ll follow you!
where you’ll find a rhyme from another time
come with me – we’ll follow you!
do the limerick style from the emerald isle
come with me – we’ll follow you!
five lines in your hand
send you round the bend
[verse 3]
there was a fearless young lady, fearless lady from riga
and she smiled as she rode, as she rode on a tiger
they came back from the ride
with the lady inside
and a fairly broad smile on the face of the tiger
[verse 4]
there was a clever young canner, exceedingly canny
and one morning he remarked, he remarked to his granny
a canner can can
anything that he can
but a canner can’t can a can. can he?
[pre-chorus]
exceedingly canny
he remarked to his granny:
[chorus]
come with me – we’ll follow you!
down to limerick city, where the words are gritty
come with me – we’ll follow you!
where you’ll find a rhyme from another time
come with me – we’ll follow you!
do the limerick style from the emerald isle
come with me – we’ll follow you!
five lines in your hand
send you round the bend
[verse 5]
“what’s a limerick, mother?”
“it’s a form of verse”, said brother
“in which lines one and two
rhyme with five when it’s through
and three and four rhyme with each other”
[chorus]
come with me – we’ll follow you!
down to limerick town, going round and round
come with me – we’ll follow you!
down to limerick city, where the words are gritty
come with me – we’ll follow you!
do the limerick style from the emerald isle
come with me – we’ll follow you!
send you round the bend
