Country Dancing Lyrics by Manfred Mann

Mighty Garvey!

1968

Down through the ages man has loved to hear the music play
Minstrels were called to play a tune on a wedding day
People would come from miles around to see the village green
Dancing around the maypole that was something to seen

Clap hands sing a song
We'll dance all night long
We're all country dancing

Go down the byways see the gypsies gathered round the fire
Listening to tales of long ago and dressed in strange attire
Out comes the flute and tambourine to play a sweet refrain
Soon we're all dancing to and fro the night is young again

And when the music cease to play
We'll make love through till the break of day
And when the sun comes up we'll work till day is done
And then we dance, yes we dance

La, la, la ...
We're all country dancing
