Irish Jig Songtext
von The Stompers

Boots on the floor and the fire burning bright
Fiddle in the corner playing through the night
Tin whistle calling like the river runs quick
Feet start moving when the bow hits slick
Shamrock pinned and your pint held high
Laughing loud under lantern light
If you′ve got two feet and a little bit of grin
Step right up and jump right in

Heel toe, spin around
Feel that bodhrán pound
When the fiddle hits that lick

Let's all do the Irish jig, Irish jig, Irish jig
Let′s all do the Irish jig (hey! hey!)
Clap your hands and move real quick, move real quick, move real quick
Clap your hands and move real quick (hey! hey!)
Round and round and don't you quit, don't you quit, don′t you quit
Round and round and don′t you quit (hey! hey!)
Let's all do the Irish jig tonight!


Skirts start swaying and the boots strike fast
Old-time steps but they′re built to last
Granddad shouting "Keep the pace!"
Big wide smile on every face
From the hills to the harbor side
Music rolling like the tide
Doesn't matter where you′re from
When the pipes play, here we come

Heel toe, tap it twice
Everything feels nice
When the whistle hits that lick

Let's all do the Irish jig, Irish jig, Irish jig
Let′s all do the Irish jig (hey! hey!)
Clap your hands and move real quick, move real quick, move real quick
Clap your hands and move real quick (hey! hey!)
Round and round and don't you quit, don't you quit, don′t you quit
Round and round and don′t you quit (hey! hey!)

Da-da-dee, da-da-dee
Da-da-dee, da-da-dee
Diddle-ee-dum, diddle-ee-dum

Da-da-dee, da-da-dee
Da-da-dee, da-da-dee
Diddle-ee-dum


Let's all do the Irish jig, Irish jig, Irish jig
Let′s all do the Irish jig (hey! hey!)
Clap your hands and move real quick, move real quick, move real quick
Clap your hands and move real quick (hey! hey!)
Round and round and don't you quit, don′t you quit, don't you quit
Round and round and don′t you quit (hey! hey!)
Let's all do the Irish jig tonight!
