Carbon Leaf - The Donnybrook Affair (single) 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!
