Carbon Leaf - The Donnybrook Affair lyrics

[Carbon Leaf - The Donnybrook Affair lyrics]

A row, a ruction, a fracas and a fray
A rough-n tumble free-for-all a
Broil, a brawl, a melee
A ruckus to be reckoned with
And now without delay
We're takin' the road to the Dodder on
Down to march in the last parade

A row, a ruction, a fracas and a fray
A rough-n tumble free-for-all, a
Broil, a brawl, a melee
A ruckus to be reckoned with
If anyone wants to dare
We're takin' the road to the Dodder
On down for the Donnybrook affair

I will go, I will meet you there
I will spend a week or two
With you at Donnybrook Fair
I will go, I will meet you there
But the council's up in arms
They aim to take it away I swear
The council's up in arms
They aim to take it away I swear

A license for leisure
What-e'er be the pleasure
The council's always up in arms to
Try and take it away, hey!

Play the harp and play the fiddle
Play the whistle too
Bang the drum and use the lungs
To get the message through
But ya fight ya might get tar-n-feathered
So bow and say a prayer
To the commission for the abolition
Of the Donnybrook Fair

A row, a ruction, a fracas and a fray
A rough-n tumble free-for-all, a
Broil, a brawl, a melee
A ruckus to be reckoned with
If anyone wants to dare
We're takin' the road to the Dodder
On down for the Donnybrook affair

I will go, I will meet you there
I will spend a week or two
With you at Donnybrook Fair
I will go, I will meet you there
But the council's up in arms
They aim to take it away I swear
The council's up in arms
They aim to take it away I swear

A license for leisure
What-e'er be the pleasure
The council's always up in arms to
Try and take it away, hey!

A row, a ruction, a fracas and a fray
A rough-n tumble free-for-all, a
Broil, a brawl, a melee
A ruckus to be reckoned with
And now without delay
We're takin' the road to the Dodder on
Down to march in the last parade

A row, a ruction, a fracas and a fray
A rough-n tumble free-for-all, a
Broil, a brawl, a melee
A ruckus to be reckoned with
If anyone wants to dare
We're takin' the road to the Dodder
On down for Donnybrook affair

I will go, I will meet you there
I will spend a week or two
With you at Donnybrook Fair
I will go, I will meet you there
But the council's up in arms and they
Aim to take it away I swear

I will go, I will meet you there
I will spend a week or two
With you at Donnybrook Fair
I will go, I will meet you there
But the council's up in arms
They aim to take it away I swear
The council's up in arms
They aim to take it away I swear
The council's always up in arms to
Try and take it away, hey!
