KEEP YOUR FEET STILL GEORDIE HINNY

Our Geordie and Bob Johnson
Both lay in one bed
In a little lodging house down by the shore
Before he’d been half an hour asleep
A kick from Geordie’s foot
Made him waken up to roar instead of snore

So keep your feet still Geordie Hinny
Let’s be happy through the night
For I may not be so happy through the day
So give me that bit comfort
Keep your feet still Geordie lad
And don’t drive my bonnie dreams away

I dreamt there was a dancing held
And Mary Clark was there
And I thought we tripped it lightly on the floor
And I pressed her heaving breast to mine
Whilst waltzing round the room
That’s more than I’ve dared ever do before

Do you know the lad she goes with
They call him Jimmy Green
And I thought he’d try to spoil our bit of fun
But I dreamt I nailed him heavy
And I blacked the young fool’s eyes
If I’d slept it’s hard to tell what I’d have done

I dreamt Jim Green had left the town
And left his love to me
And I thought the house was furnished with the best
And I dreamt that I’d just left the church
With Mary by my side
When your clumsy feet completely spoiled the rest

(Trad. arr. The Whisky Priests)
