Cooraclare
- D. Hodge

Hurry Katie get your best dress on
Tie a brand new ribbon in your hair
Mother says that the Dance Master's coming
Back home to Cooraclare

Seems like an age since he's been here last
The green fields have all gone to brown
Slip on your ghillies and give us a reel
The dance master's come back to town

Hurry Katie get your best dress on
Tie a brand new ribbon in your hair
Mother says that the Dance Master's coming
Back home to Cooraclare

And do you suppose he’s still got the same lad
With the beautiful fiddle and bow
And just how many times will he try to catch your eye
‘Cause he’s sweet on you don’t you know

Hurry Katie get your best dress on
Tie a brand new ribbon in your hair
Mother says that the Dance Master's coming
Back home to Cooraclare
