orthodox celts - mick mcguire lyrics
oh, me name is mick mcguire and i’ll quickly tell to you
of a young girl i admired called kate donahue,
she was fair an’ fat an’ fourty, believe me when i say,
whenever i came in at the door i heard her mummy say:
“johnny get up from fire and give the man a sate,
don’t you see it’s old mcguire and he’s courtin’ your sister kate.
oh, you know very well he owns a farm a wee bit out of a town,
get up of that, you impudent brat and let the mac sit down”.
the first time that i met her was at dance at termagee,
and i very kindly asked her if she’d dance a step with me.
then i asked if i could see her home if i’d be goin’ her way,
whenever i came in at the door i heard her mummy say:
“johnny get up from fire and give the man a sate,
don’t you see it’s old mcguire and he’s courtin’ your sister kate.
oh, you know very well he owns a farm a wee bit out of a town,
get up of that, you impudent brat and let the mac sit down”.
but now that we are married, sure, her mother changed her mind,
just because i spent the legacy her father left behind.
now i got a bid of decadency get me time of day,
whenever i came in at the door i heard her mummy say:
“johnny, come up to fire, you’re sittin’ in the draft,
don’t you see it’s old mcguire and he nearly drives me daft.
oh, you know very well he owns a farm a wee bit out of a town,
just sit where you are and never you dare to give old mac the chair”.
