MacNamara's Band (Live)
My name is McNamara I'm the leader of the band
although we're small in numbers we're the best in the land
I am the conductor and we often have to play
With all the best musicianers you'll hear about today
Oh the drums go bang and the cymbals clang and the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon and I the pipes do play
and Hennessy Tennessy tickles the flute his work is somethin' grand
a credit to old Ireland is McNamara's Band
Tra la la laaa, la la la laa laaaa, laaaa la la la laaaa
tra la la laaa, la la la laa laaaa, a credit to old Ireland is McNamara's Band
We play at wakes and weddings and at every county ball
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
and every great mans at funeral we play the 'March From Saul'
When the Prince of Wales to Ireland came he shooe by the hand
he said,'I've never seen the likes of McNamara's Band'
When the drums go bang and the cymbals clang and the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon and I the pipes do play
and Hennessy Tennessy tickles the flute his work is somethin' grand
a credit to old Ireland is McNamara's Band
Tra la la laaa, la la la laa laaaa, laaaa la la la laaaa
tra la la laaa, la la la laa laaaa, a credit to old Ireland is McNamara's Band
