***CEILIDH COWBOY - Shane MacGowan
from the album "The Crock Of Gold"
Ceilidh Cowboy - as perfomed by Shane MacGowan and The Popes
Intro: [F F F F] [F F G F] repeat X 2
FI am a ceilidh cowboy
I'm a stranger in this Ftown
You should hear your women Fsqueal with joy
When I Gget their knickers Fdown
FI'll dance them and romance them
Till they're nearly out of Fbreath
Then when I take them Fout for air
I'll Gfuck them half to Fdeath
Been Fsitting on the fridge close to the edge
FRunnin out of coke and dyin for a poke G
FDon't lock up your wives and daughters
Don't lock up your cats and Fdogs
Like I came down here my Ffeet all bare
And I Gsleep in a hollow Flog
Chorus: (repeat X 2)
FYippee I oh, Yippee I Fay
Yodle Fodle ee Yodle Fodle ee
Yodle Godle odle Fay
Break: [F F F F] [F F G F] repeat X 2
My name is Father Emmett
I've been banished from my home
Cos all the women loved me
And I always had the bone
I can play the concertina,
guitar, bazouki and citern
When I dance the Siege of Ennis
The floor beneath me starts to burn
For a jar or two just to get me through
I'll do a turn for you... and absolve you too
I'll take care of your missus
All night long the whole night through
While you jump on that young one over there
That's makin eyes at you
Chorus: (repeat X 4)
FYippee I oh, Yippee I Fay
Yodle Fodle ee Yodle Fodle ee
Yodle Godle odle Fay
