Connie Francis - Mac Namara's Band lyrics

rate me

(Shamus O' Connor - J. J. Stamford - Dwight Latham)

Oh, me name is Mac Namara, I'm the leader of the band

Although we're few in numbers we're the finest in the land

We played wakes and weddings and at every fancy ball

And when we play to funerals we play the march from Saul.

Oh, the drums go bang and the crystals clang

And the horns they blaze away

Mac Carthy pumps the old bassoon while the pipes do play

And Hennessey Tennessee tootles the flute

And the music is something grand

A credit to old Ireland is Mac Namara's band.

Oh, I wear a bunch of shamrocks and a uniform of green

I'm the funniest looking Swede that you have ever seen

There's O'Briens and Ryans and Meehans and Sheehans

They come from Ireland

Hey, by Yimminy I'm the only Swede in Mac Namara's band.

Oh, the drums go bang and the crystals clang

And the horns they blaze away

Mac Carthy pumps the old bassoon while the pipes do play

And Hennessey Tennessee tootles the flute

And the music is something grand

A credit to old Ireland is Mac Namara's band...
