Harvest Of The Moon |
All the husbands and the wives |
We were dancing for our lives |
All to the tune of Elsie Marley |
Instead of gathering up our differences |
And throwing them in the air |
And giving them to the wind that shakes the barley |
And the children they were watching |
Every girl and every girl |
As we danced to the tune of Elsie Marley |
But they’d heard another tune |
From the harvest of the moon |
That rides upon the wind that shakes the barley |
Then Bridget she declared |
That she was not prepared |
To watch us dance to the tune of Elsie Marley |
She said I’ll sing you all a song |
And you’ll want to sing along |
If you listen to the wind that shakes the barley |
And the song that she sang |
Could be heard for miles around |
The air was full of harmony |
You should have heard the sound |
As we gathered up our differences |
And threw them in the air |
And gave them to the wind that shakes the barley |
All the husbands and the wives |
We were dancing for our lives |
All to the tune of Elsie Marley |
Until we gathered up our differences |
And threw them in the air |
And gave them to the wind that shakes the barley |
Then all of us declared |
That we were not prepared |
To dance our lives away with Elsie Marley |
For we’d heard another tune |
From the harvest of the moon |
That rides upon the wind that shakes the barley |
And the song that we sang |
Could be heard for miles around |
The air was full of harmony |
You should have heard the sound |
As we gathered up our differences |
And threw them in the air |
And gave them to the wind that shakes the barley |
