Friday At The Dance Lyrics by Michael English
Here's an interview Singer Michael English done during the lockdown.
An Irish country song. Released in May 2014.
Well I've been dancing all my life as long as I remember.
My mom would teach us one by one to learn to dance together.
Well we got no pay and we got no job and we got no money in the bank.
But Friday night at the stroke of nine wee'd all head to the dance.
Chorus.
With a 1 pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl and I love the other
Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, Friday at the dance.
With the boys on the left and the girls on the right,
and mom there in the middle,
She asked us if we had no drink and swear it on the Bible.
We stayed all night 'till the Cows came home given half the chance
Nothing could compare with the people there, Friday at the dance.
With a 1 pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl and I love the other
Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, Friday at the dance.
Well how the time it passes by from one day to the other,
If I'd the chance to do the same I'd do the same all over.
Well we got no Gold and we got no Boat and we got no Villa in France,
But Friday night at the stroke of nine we still head to the dance.
With a 1 pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl and I love the other
Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, Friday at the dance.
Well I've been dancing all my life as long as I remember.
My mom would teach us one by one to learn to dance together.
Well we got no pay and we got no job and we got no money in the bank.
But Friday night at the stroke of nine wee'd all head to the dance.
Chorus.
With a 1 pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl and I love the other
Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, Friday at the dance.
With the boys on the left and the girls on the right,
and mom there in the middle,
She asked us if we had no drink and swear it on the Bible.
We stayed all night 'till the Cows came home given half the chance
Nothing could compare with the people there, Friday at the dance.
With a 1 pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl and I love the other
Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, Friday at the dance.
Well how the time it passes by from one day to the other,
If I'd the chance to do the same I'd do the same all over.
Well we got no Gold and we got no Boat and we got no Villa in France,
But Friday night at the stroke of nine we still head to the dance.
With a 1 pound note that I got from my mother and chatting up one girl and I love the other
Talking about nothing but the change in the weather, Friday at the dance.
