Um diddle diddle

With an:
Um diddle diddle diddle um dim day
Um diddle diddle day
Um diddle diddle diddle um dim day
Um diddle diddle day
Um diddle diddle day

Take your partner by the hand
And strip him to the waist
Lay your hands upon his hips
And lay his soul to waist

Turn a wheel upon the grass
Look up to the sky
Dip your head in barley wine
And never wonder why

Do the barndance one two three
Dance the oldern way
Gather girls around you
Take them into the hay

Drink yourself into the ground
Drink 'til you reach the floor
Wait 'til you hear the angels come
And then pray for some more

Dance like old Nick himself
Set your feet on fire
If I said he was not watching
Then I would be a liar

Hear the fiddler play his tune
Faster faster fire
Notes they set a rick alight
Build higher and higher

Girls in dresses oh so fine
Dancing wild and warm
I see Connie later tonight
I'm gonna be in her arms
