Devil Went Down to Glasgow
Copyright: 2012
The devil went down to Glasgow
he was looking for a jig or reel
he knew a pipers spell could send you to hell
when you hear the bagpipes squeal
When he came across a braw wee lad
squeezing a bag and blowin it hot
And the Devil jumped up on a 12 year old...cask
And said, braccchhhhchhooocccchhhh
I guess you did nay know it
But I'm a piper too
when my pipes get snorin twill stirrr your sporan
and will shrink yer digerido
My name is Kevin Dano and I may be a ginger
but when I play the pipes Im Wesley Snipes
and I drone like a doberman pincer
Heres a game to keep your pipes
that will be your just reward and then
the loser gets the Eternal prize
OF PLAYING THE ACCORDION
Kevin is blowin up his bag he is ready for the bet
you just know when he starts piping, his brow is bathed in sweat
His tighty whities would keep up the bet they could sustain
be sure the craic was mighty it was coming down like rain!
instrumental
the devil cursed and closed up his case
his face was cloked in pain
He said hand me that accordion
I LL give you Lady of Spain
Youve schooled me with yer pipin
My face is flushed with shame
I canny bring ye doon to hell
because your sweat would douse the flames
Kevin said, Devil just come on back
as a piper youre pathetic
You can practice more you SoB
but Im always diaphoretic
