about
This arrangement began life as a video contribution to the brilliant #COVIDceilidh initiative, started by Duncan Chisholm during the lockdowns of 2020. I picked up this version of the trad classic "Dance To Your Daddy" from the singing of the wonderful Nancy Kerr & James Fagan during my teenage years, and very much enjoyed the challenge of putting my own spin on it sometime later.
lyrics
Dance to your Daddy, my little laddie
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
Dance to your Daddy, my little laddie
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
You shall have a fish and you shall have a fin
You shall have a herring when the boat comes in
You shall have a codling boiled in a pan
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
Dance to your Daddy, my little laddie
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
You shall have a fish and you shall have a fin
You shall have a herring when the boat comes in
You shall have a codling boiled in a pan
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
