seamus moore - j.c.b. song lyrics
[verse 1]
now there’s a man delaney, he’s a man of high renown
he’s in the plant hire business, over in london town
he has a load of wagons, a merc and a model t
but the pride of his possession is billy dunne’s old jcb
[chorus]
well he takes it down to nelly’s, to the bell and to the crown
and the engine runs on diesel oil, it never lets him down
he takes it to the galtee, ah but only for the craic
with delaney at the steering wheel and the subbies in thе back
[verse 2]
the inside of the jcb is a sight to bеhold
he’s got curtains on the windows of colours green, white and gold
he has a photograph of bruton from the dáil in dublin town
and there’s still one of maggie thatcher, now picturing her knickers hanging down
[chorus]
well he takes it down to nelly’s, to the bell and to the crown
and the engine runs on diesel oil, it never lets him down
he takes it to the galtee, ah but only for the craic
with delaney at the steering wheel and the subbies in the back
[verse 3]
he doctored up the jcb to give it more horsepower
and he thundered down from ballycumber at a hundred mile an hour
and when the cops came after him billy dunne had them lined
well he stuck it into overdrive and left old guards behind
[chorus]
well he takes it down to nelly’s, to the bell and to the crown
and the engine runs on diesel oil, it never lets him down
he takes it to the galtee, ah but only for the craic
with delaney at the steering wheel and billy dunne stuck in the back
[verse 4]
they built an international airport in a place that’s known as knock
when monsignor first turned the site sure he got an awful shock
for there beneath the heather, well the water ran so free
he said “i’ll send for billy dunne with old yellow jcb”
[chorus]
well he takes it down to nelly’s, to the bell and to the crown
and the engine runs on diesel oil, it never lets him down
he takes it to the galtee, ah but only for the craic
with billy at the steering wheel and the subbies in the back
[verse 5]
when the pope he went to mayo, sure he had a popemobile
a great machine on tarmac, but no good in the fields
and when his chopper flew into knock, what did john decree
he said “i’ll send for billy dunne with old yellow jcb”
[chorus]
well he takes it down to nelly’s, to the bell and to the crown
and the engine runs on diesel oil, it never lets him down
he takes it to the galtee, ah but only for the craic
with billy at the steering wheel and the subbies in the back
[verse 6]
when billy goes a+courting with the queer one by his side
he might go by bus éireann or take the rally bike
he might go on shanks’s pony, that’s old mr. d
and when he comes down to the hazel he might take the jcb
[chorus]
well he takes it down (to nelly’s), to the bell and to the crown
and the engine runs on diesel oil, it never lets him down
he takes it to the galtee, ah but only for the craic
with billy at the steering wheel and the subbies in the back
(billy dunne lives in ballycumber, county offaly, fair play to you billy)
