SHAKING OF THE SHEETS
GDance, dance the Dshaking of the sheets
CDance, dance Dwhen you hear the piper
GPlaying, Deveryone must dance
The EmShaking of the DSheets with Emme
EmBring away the beggar, Dbring away the king
And Emevery man in Dhis dEmegree,
EmBring away the oldest Dand the youngest thing
EmCome to death and Dfollow Emme
EmBring away the merchant who Dmade his money in France
EmAnd the crafty Dbanker Emtoo,
EmWhen you hear the piper Dyou and I must dance
The Emdance that everyDone must Emdo.
GDance, dance the Dshaking of the sheets
CDance, dance Dwhen you hear the piper
GPlaying, Deveryone must dance
The SEmhaking of the DSheets with Emme
I’lEml find you in the courtrooms, I'lDl find you in the schools
EmWhen you hear the Dpiper Emplay,
I’llEm take away the wise men, I'lDl take away the fools
And Embring their Dbodies all to Emclay.
EmAll the politicians of Dhigh and low degree,
EmLords and ladies Dgreat and Emsmall,
EmDon’t think that you'll escape anDd need not dance with me,
I’lEml make you come wheDn I dEmo call.
GDance, dance the Dshaking of the sheets
CDance, dance Dwhen you hear the piper
GPlaying, Deveryone must dance
The EmShaking of the DSheets with Emme
It Emmay be in the day, it Dmay be in the night,
PrepEmare yourselves to Ddance and Empray
EmThat when the piper plays ``The DShaking Of The Sheets’'
EmYou may to Heaven Ddance the Emway.
GDance, dance the Dshaking of the sheets
CDance, dance Dwhen you hear the piper
GPlaying, Deveryone must dance
The EmShaking of the DSheets with Emme
