michael english - tuam beat lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
once upon a golden age
singin’ songs was all the rage
songs for glory, songs for fun
sad songs in the native tongue

upon me solemn oath
there’d be forty verses note for note
here’s a song to set you free
from all of that auld history

[chorus]
the tuam beat goes sugar sugar
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mother?”
got the tuam beat goes shimmy shammy
and heart speaks and “how’s your mammy?”
singin’ the songs, singin’ the songs, singin’ the same old songs

[verse 2]
and stall her sham, you’re only spoofin’
you’re huffin’ and you’re puffin’ and you’re blowin’ the roof in
i’ve got the electric guitar
with the pickup and the tremolo bar

[chorus]
i got the tuam beat goes sugar sugar
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mother?”
got the tuam beat goes shimmy shammy
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mammy?”
singin’ the songs, singin’ the songs, singin’ the same old songs
[verse 3]
come on!
yeah!
hup!

ah, the workin’, workin’, workin ‘man
are you wide to paddy talty’s plan
boys n girls they twist about
they have a bit of fun and they dance about

[chorus]
they got the tuam beat goes sugar sugar
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mother?”
got the tuam beat goes shimmy shammy
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mammy?”
singin’ the songs, singin’ the songs, singin’ the same old songs

[verse 4]
come on!
at quarter to eleven and off we go
down the palace, not too slow
heaven’s all across the sky
i declare to god i must reply

the tinker, the pavee sham
fair play to the travelling man
his wheel broke, he settled down
he brings beauty to the town
[chorus and outro]
he got the tuam beat goes sugar sugar
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mother?”
got the tuam beat goes shimmy shammy
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mammy?”

got the tuam beat goes sugar sugar
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mother?”
got the tuam beat goes shimmy shammy
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mammy?”

got the tuam beat goes sugar sugar
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mother?”
got the tuam beat goes shimmy shammy
and the heart speaks and “how’s your mammy?”

singin’ the songs, singin’ the songs, singin’ the same old
singin’ the songs, singin’ the songs, singin’ the same old songs

yeah!
yeah!
hup!
yeah!
come on!

we’re just singin’ the songs, singin’ the songs, singin’ the same old
singin’ the songs, singin’ the songs, we’re singin’ the same old songs
