Country Dancing - Manfred Mann

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
