At The Céili by Celtic Woman


Tonight were going to meet some lads

Us girls are dressed up gaily

And well be dancing till the dawn

Were going to the Cili

 

The lads they come from miles around

From Maylis and Comaley

To show us all their fancy steps

Were going to the Cili

 

Theyre playing tunes on everything

From pipes to ukulele

It sounds so good you cant sit down

Were dancing at the Cili

 

All the boys we love so well

So handsome young and charming

Theyre in New York and Boston now

They should be home here farming

My own true love has sailed away

To be an endless rover

Cause times are tough and he will save

To start a new life over

 

He writes me letters every week

To say how much hes slavin

And he promises that hell be back

Before the hay needs savin

But its hard to love somebody

That youre not in touch with daily

So Im looking for somebody new

Tonight down at the Cili

 

The winter nights are long and hard

And time goes by so slowly

I wish my true love he was here

And in his arms Id go

Hed whisper tender words of love to me

And kiss my lips so sweetly

And quickly Id surrender to

His manly charms completely

He writes me letters every week

To say how much hes slavin

And he promises that hell be back

Before the hay needs savin

But its hard to love somebody

That youre not in touch with daily

So Im looking for somebody new

Tonight down at the Cili

So Im looking for somebody new

Tonight down at the Cili

 

I hope I meet someone tonight

Wholl make my heart beat fast

A handsome man with laughing eyes

Who smiles as he walks past

And when they play an old-time waltz

Hell twirl me round the floor

And promise me that I will be

His girl forevermore

His girl forevermore

His girl forevermore

Hell promise me that I will be

His girl forevermore

 

Im somewhat in a bother

That is really quite alarming

I have two lads pursuing me

And each of them is charming

One of them is dark and poor

One fair with lots of money

I dont know which one to choose

The flower or the honey

 

What on earth am I to do

Its driving me half crazy

Tonight Ill make my mind up

When I see them at the Cili

 

To be a poor mans wife will be

A life of washin' dishes

When a rich mans wife will surely have

Great luxury and riches

 

In comfort how I know

It wouldnt be too hard to wallow

And being poor is not much fun;

Which one should I follow?

 

O what on earth am I to do

Its driving me half crazy

Tonight Ill make my mind up

When I see them at the Cili:

 

Ive been lucky Ive found

A lad whos handsome and a neighbor

 

And me Ive met a decent man

Whos friendship I will savor

 

And me Ive made my choice

As well and in no way was it easy

But Id rather have a life of love

Then to be a rich mans lady

 

And that is how the story ends

May true love never fail me

We got ourselves three men tonight

And we met them at the Cili
