Swallow Tail Jig
Ancestors sweet,
a hundred years past,
did dance as they played
out this tune
I feel it deep within my soul
as embers spark into flame
I trust that when you hear the
jig, if Irish blood flows in ye
You feel the need to tap your
feet and reel like your blood
kin once did
Yes, oh yes, I swing to the tune
as my ancestors did back then
And I feel the smile grow upon
my face as the music flows all around
