From Ireland came a band,
a hundred years ago they say,
G
For the birthday feast of
D
the Clan MacLeish,
A
G
the band was booked to play.
D
They wore green hats, green spots,
green coats, I think,
G
D
The thing they weren't a -green on
A
was the share and all the
D
G

drink.
D
Colonel Chief MacLeish was
very pleased
as he took to his seat
G
D
For it was said his wife had made
G
a special birthday treat
D
He wore blue braid, blue plate,
blue kilt I suppose
G
D
The only thing that wasn't blue,
A

Bm
D
he never blew his nose
G
D
The guests gasped when at last
the treat was finally brought
G
On a wooden plate,
Bm
A
G
a steaming great dumpling piping hot
D
Oh, they grabbed it, stabbed it,
but the dumpling stayed intact
G
D
Till a fierce McLeish, no too pleased,
A
D
G
D
G

gave it a hell of a crack
G
D
The whittler stopped the dumpling
with an Irish roar of pain
G
He cursed and swore,
D
A
G
then once more kicked it back again
D
They went up and down the
banquet room,
forty -wide and eighty -lang,
G
D
Kicked between MacLeish's men
A
D
G
D
G

and the Irish Ceilidh band.
G
D
Their anger changed to laughter
when they saw it could be fun,
G
D
But their laughter changed to anger
A
G
when they thought the Rhymeside won.
D
Still they play this game today
Though they've changed
the rules somehow
G
We're el even dumplings
D
on each side
A
D
And they call it football now
