lirik lagu macnamara’s band – unknown artist
macnamara’s band
my name is macnamara
i’m the leader of a band
and though we’re small in number
we’re the best in all the land
of course l’m the conductor
and l’ve often had to play
with all the fine musicians
that you read about today
chorus:
the drums they bang, the cymbals clang
the h-rns they blaze away
macarthy puffs the ould b-ssoon
doyle (and i) the pipes does play
hennessey tuteily tootles the flute
the music is something grand
and a credit to ould ireland’s boys
is macnamara’s band
whenever an election’s on
we play on either side
and the way we play the fine ould airs
fills every heart with pride
if dear tom moore was living now
he’d make them understand
that none can do him justice
like ould macnamara’s band
chorus
we play for fairs or weddings
and for every county ball
and at any great man’s funeral
we play “the dead march in saul.”
when general grant to ireland came
he shook me by the hand
and said he never heard the like
of ould macnamara’s band
chorus
just now we are practicing
for a very grand affair
it’s an annual celebration
all the gentry will be there
the girls and boys will all turn out
with flags and colours grand
and in front of the procession
will be macnamara’s band
