Fairport Convention - Hungarian Rhapsody lyrics

Oh what a time we had down by the Danube! Eating our Ghoulash and drinking our wine Listening to Gypsy bands playing cimbaloms Everyone's happy and things are just fine Finished our food and got into the wagon to drive 80 miles and then do the show 5 hours later, we're still busy trucking banging and bumping; don't know where to go Oh what a time we had down by the Danube! Eating our Ghoulash and drinking our wine Listening to Gypsy bands playing cimbaloms Everyone's happy and things are just fine Got to the gig, although nobody else did set up the gear and began to play farmers and soldiers just standing and staring just didn't know what to make of the day Oh what a time we had down by the Danube! Eating our Ghoulash and drinking our wine Listening to Gypsy bands playing cimbaloms Everyone's happy and things are just fine Finished the last song and made for the exit but the manager man had come up from the sticks he said "why ain't you dressed like a poofter ensemble leaping pianos and waving your legs?" Dear Mr Hilter, we've been meaning to tell you it's really quite simple, you don't have to fear we ain't your Rolling Stones, we ain't your T-Rex ACUTALLY WE'RE ONLY HERE FOR THE BEER Oh what a time we had down by the Danube! Eating our Ghoulash and drinking our wine Listening to Gypsy bands playing cimbaloms Everyone's happy and things are just fine Into the van again, out on the highway back to our hotel to take a rest Everyone's swigging their Egri Bikaver Things really were funny in old Budapest. Oh what a time we had down by the Danube! Eating our Ghoulash and drinking our wine Listening to Gypsy bands playing cimbaloms Everyone's happy and things are just fine Oh what a time we had down by the Danube Drinking our ghoulash and drinking our wine I'VE fu*kED IT UP!
