C
Over in McCann's there's a grand type of dance band a'playin'
And they're spinning out the continental ceilidh
They're comin' in their cars from the bars
Over in Leitir and Killane
Just to hear the famous Gunter Reynolds playing
F
Out the star of Munster with Hans O'Donoghue
C
Neatly rappin' out a tango on the spoons
Such commotion will act like a lotion on the struttin'
G7 C
At the continental ceili tonight.
C
Wolfgang's playin' on the comb someone shouts at him: "go home!"
Klaus is playin' a slow air on the bodhran
Quinn from Corofin his fiddle tucked beneath his chin S-s-h-h
He's goin' to play the "Bogs of Oranmore" now
F
An auld fashioned lady begins to sing a song
C
Ah, lads, a bit of order over there
Clarinbridge for the chowder keep your powder dry
G7 C
At the continental ceilidh tonight.
G
Ciaran closes his eye's pretends he's in disguise
F C
When he sees an old flame comin over
G
He's singing for the Swedes in their tweeds
Doin' all he can to please
F D
The night's at such a delicate stage
G
Later on he'll give an audience to one of them or two
F C
He'll sing the Dyin' Swan to touch their feelings
D7 G7
Tonight's his night and tomorrow night will be just the same.
