Lyrics:

She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle,

She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle;

Let 'er go, let 'er go, you'll find another,

There's a lot a pretty women at the head of Grand River.

Now the Widow Malone lived by the strand,

For forty years without a man;

She danced around and she waved her fan,

Set her eyes on me Uncle Dan.

She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle,

She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle;

Let 'er go, let 'er go, you'll find another,

There's a lot a pretty women at the head of Grand River.

Now he would not listen to my advice,

So he married her there on a wintry night;

She ate all the grub at the party fair,

Drank every man clean under his chair.

She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle,

She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle;

Let 'er go, let 'er go, you'll find another,

There's a lot a pretty women at the head of Grand River.

Now when he got home on his weddin' night,

Me Uncle Dan got a hell of a fright:

She hung her leg upon the wall,

Down on the floor her teeth did fall,

One glass eye, off came her hair,

And down the road me Uncle Dan did tear.

She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle,

She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle;

Let 'er go, let 'er go, you'll find another,

There's a lot a pretty women at the head of Grand River.

Now they claim he ran to France or Spain,

And he sent a letter home to her sayin':

"Darling, if you ever need another man,

You can count me out — Love, Uncle Dan."

She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle,

She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle;

Let 'er go, let 'er go, you'll find another,

There's a lot a pretty women at the head of Grand River.

She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle,

She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle;

Let 'er go, let 'er go, you'll find another,

There's a lot a pretty women at the head of Grand River.

The line: "She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle" is best of all:)

@MrTwisterband I too have Irish along with African roots as well, but i am an American. I am proud of my roots as well as this band is proud of their's, Irish Descendants. just because they are not from Ireland dosnt mean they dont understand the Irish culture.i am pretty sure that there parents helped them keep their Irish culture.you can here it in their music. dont hate on them for not being born in Ireland.you should respect them for keeping the Irish culture with their music

I get a real kick out of this song. It is played in the style of the Acadian fiddle that you also hear in Louisiana as well as Canada. All in all, I love The Irish Descendents and wouldn't I love to spend some real time in Newfoundland.

God love CaptainZaltan-you tried to come across all educated but ended up a complete Sad act-you have your own culture with irish roots-well then you are not irish as you have your own culture-my country-Ireland-well we have roots all over the place but you know there is only one Ireland and also only one newfoundland-so these are guys doing a good parody style job of an irish inspired song so really i am correct-Need i say more:

@MrTwisterband Also, no-one really gives a damn where you're from. Or what the Irish would think of this. Growing up in Ireland doesn't give you a superior taste in music. Irish descendants aren't envious of the Irish; I have no idea where you got that notion. We have our own culture, with Irish roots. That's being celebrated here. I guess you thought playing the "I'm Irish!" card would win you some respect here. But no...you really just sound like a troll.
