Ceili Rain - Jigorous lyrics

rate me

There's no one in the house

It's quiet as a mouse

But eight o'clock they will all be home

Our Momma isn't well

She hasn't been herself

Forgetting things she's always known

Well tonight she's gonna dance

Tonight she's gonna sing

Little Momma's gotta shake it

We're gonna get you back into the swing

Let's get jigorous, jigorous

Jig-jivin', jumpin' into the swirlin', twirlin', whirl of life

That's all around us

Jigorous, jigorous

Get livin', dangerous cause there's only so much more daylight

So today will have to cheat its way

Into tonight

The family loves to dance

We seize on any chance

To kick up our heels and cut a rug

Tom and Linny rhumba

And me and Megan walts

Look it Ma & Johnny jitterbug!

You could say it doesn't help her

It's only just a dance

But when you have a partner

You always have a chance

So let's get

Jig, jig, everybody

Jig, jig hand in hand

Jig, jig for the love of each pair of feet in the land

Reach out for a partner

Grab on, do-si-do

Find you one who won't let go

I got one who won't let go

Stealthily I creep

The nurse says she's asleep

I sit on the bed and watch her breathe

Cause when she comes awake

She'll say it's a mistake:

"I don't belong here, son, let's leave!"

Well Momma isn't sure of

Her way from here to there

Like all of us she tries to be brave but she's scared

But when she hears a song that

She thinks she's heard before

She reaches for her partner, and heads out to the floor

She says: Let's get - c'mon now,

Let's get jigorous, jigorous

Jig-jivin', jumpin' into the swirlin', twirlin', whirl of life

That's all around us

Jigorous, jigorous

Get livin', dangerous cause I want to deserve this light

That's shinin' down on us

Jigorous, jigorous

Jig-jivin', jumpin' into the swirlin', twirlin', whirl of life

That's all around us

Jigorous, jigorous, ain't it fabulous

Cause I'm bathin' in the warmest light

And today is gonna cheat its way into tonight<br />
