lyrics

Running and a skipping, strumming and a picking,
Go on and get your bow
Everyone is here, don’t forget the beer,
the guitar and the banjo

Listen to the old timer, fiddlin at five and dimer
Making that fiddle talk
Granny will your dog bite, Paddy on the Turnpike
Watch him play the Ookpick waltz

This is our time, our time, our grand old time
This is our time, our time, our grand old time

Square your sets, everyone circle left
Bow to your corner and go home
Promenade, that birdie in the cage
Chase the rabbit down it’s hole

Roll away half sashay
Then we’re gonna weave that ring
Take my hand, right left grand
Now there’s nothing left to do but swing

This is our time, our time, our grand old time
This is our time, our time, our grand old time

Shuffle and slip, doing the backstep
Cornmeal on the hard wood floor
zig and zag, roll and drag
Dance till your feet get sore

We played the whole dang day away
Boys them buzzards are flying
Lets toss the tune around the room
Till someone yells one more time
