    Writhing in an electric tune‚ the band begins to play. Walking back and forth across the stage I heard the singer cry. Down at the bar last night‚ By the pale of evening moon light. The band‚ oh‚ they did play! The band‚ oh‚ they did play! To the tune of Rock n’ Roll‚ With fingers blazing across the strings They made the gui-tars scream. A clash of cymbals‚ The pounding of drums Coming from that Rock n’ Roll. And far into the moonlight they played To the roar of the crowd he sang

    Down along the rocky shore Some make their home‚ They live on crispy pancakes Of yellow tide-foam; Some in the reeds Of the black mountain lake‚ With frogs for their watch-dogs‚ All night awake. High on the hill-top The old King sits; He is now so old and gray He’s nigh lost his wits. With a bridge of white mist Columbkill he crosses‚ On his stately journeys From Slieveleague to Rosses; Or going up with music On cold starry nights‚ To sup with the Queen Of the gay Northern Lights

    early to late‚ can’t hardly wait‚ Patience like a bee sting. Like a ghost in the night they filter through site They tease and bugle and brag‚ As tell tale sign‚ weave and wind Through timber‚ rocks and crags Where a sapling tree‚ used to be Now a twig broke scarred and torn Velvet left there and shed of hair To tell the rut has been born. Strong elk scent‚ down wind is sent From their bedded layer They are up once again and start to transcend Letting us know they were there.
