Jig of the Century Lyrics by Diablo Swing Orchestra

Swagger & Stroll Down the Rabbit Hole

2021

As I recall, a sea of green
(The story starts and this is how it’s been told)
The fairest maid I have ever seen
(And from this day his heart was ever so bold)
Is it right, is it wrong, guess time will tell
But what will they say back home?
(What will they say back home?)
I fought them all and I fought them well
(And that’s an act of bravery alone)
She made me believe, made me choose
Trust in her words and then just lose it all
In times like these, in times like those
(Thе time was right for him to take a chance)
It’s what I seek, of what wе speak
In her grace and my how we danced
For all things holy
Hope and glory
Rise and shine
Now is the time
For merry-making and fireworks in the sky
Raise our glasses
In triumph and laughter
Sing hallelujah, rejoice he was found
The silence so eerie
My dear, I gave you my all
Danced to the sound of a world in despair
Fading hopes but our future laid bare
Blessed and now the dice it was cast
We came to taste our freedom at last
The wheel of time
And so many miles
(The end of our tale is drawing near)
For what a way to end my trials
(He remembers the words he held so dear)
A promise made and a promise saved
And I know what they say back home
So when they lay me down to rest
(Words of pride will be carved into his stone)
She made me believe, made me choose
Trust in her words and then just lose it all
Rise and shine
Now’s the time
For merry-making and fireworks in the sky
Raise our glasses
In triumph and laughter
Sing hallelalalalujah! Rejoice, he was found
Danced to the sound of a world in despair
Fading hopes but our future laid bare
Blessed and now the dice it was cast
We came to taste our freedom at last
