A Calling-On Song |
Good people pray heed a petition |
Your attention we beg and crave |
And if you are inclined for to listen |
An abundance of pastime we’ll have |
We have come to relate many stories |
Concerning our forefathers time |
And we trust they will drive out your worries |
Of this we are all in one mind |
Many tales of the poor and the gentry |
Of labor and love will arise |
There are no finer songs in this country |
In Scotland or Ireland likewise |
There’s one thing more need be mentioned |
The dances are danced all in fun |
So now you’ve heard our intention |
We’ll play on to the beat of the drum |
