Family Rankin – Johnny Tulloch lyrics

Johnny Tulloch agus Mary
agus Iain Alex Rory
Angus Hector, Mary Sarah,
Archie Dan, Alex Joe
Little Johnny Dougal agus
Theresa Duncan Peter
All piled in a wagon for
a dance in Glencoe

Well they barrelled down
the back roads
By the farmhouse and the pasture
They barrelled down the back roads
Where the bochans wouldn't go
Sipped a little dealach just to
get the diddle flowing
Sang a gaelic song there was no radio

When they got to the dance
They could hear the fiddle playing
The could see the couples swaying
Through a window by the door
Shovelled out a nickel to a man
behind the wicket
Then heard the prompter holler
"Four couples on the floor"

Well they danced all night there
was nobody caring
Shuffled in the gravel and they
shuffled in the snow
Stepped 'er in the hall and
they stepped 'er in the parking lot
Didn't give a damn they just had to
let her go

Johnny Tulloch agus Mary

Angus Hector, Mary Sarah,
Archie Dan, Alex Joe
Little Johnny Dougal agus
Theresa Duncan Peter
All piled in a wagon for
a dance in Glencoe

Johnny Tulloch agus Mary
agus Iain Alex Rory
Angus Hector, Mary Sarah,
Archie Dan, Alex Joe
Little Johnny Dougal agus
Theresa Duncan Peter
All piled in a wagon for
a dance in Glencoe

All piled in a wagon for
a dance in Glencoe

All piled in a wagon for
they were heading home.
