Secular Saturday Sing-a-long



Lyrics: 
There's nothing else I'd rather do
Than to sit around and talk to you
And reminice about a simpler time
The music that we made
Was simple but it stayed
In my memory and 
On my mind

Dancin' on daddy's shoes
Dancin' all around the room
Rollin' the rug up
kickin' our heels up
Dancin' away the blues
Sister would clap along
Everyone would sing a song
Playin' homemade music
dancin' on daddy's shoes

There's something bout this musty room
That makes me reel and it 
Makes me swoon
That strange perfume is one of a kind
The rhythm takes me back
When I hear that rap-pa-tap
There's no nicer feeling that I can find

Dancin' on daddy's shoes
Memories you'll never loose
Dancin' away the blues
Sentimental memories
Dancin' on daddy' shoes

Dancin' on daddy' shoes

Dancin' on daddy's shoes
Dancin' all around the room
Rollin' the rug up
kickin' our heels up
Dancin' away the blues
Sister would clap along
Everyone would sing a song
Playin' homemade music
dancin' on daddy's shoes

Oh, dancin' on daddy's shoes

Sung to the tune of "Iko Iko"

My grand-pa and your grand-pa were read-in' C. H. Spurgeon.
My grand-pa told your grand-pa: "His sermons are real encourgin'."
Talk-in’ ’bout, hey now ! hey now ! i-ko, i-ko, un-day
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-nay. - jock-a-mo fee na-nay.-

Look at that verse in Romans 9
I-ko, i-ko, un-day.
I bet-cha it'll make an Arminian whine.
Jock-a-mo fee na-nay
Talk-in’ ’bout, hey now ! hey now ! i-ko, i-ko, un-day
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-nay. - jock-a-mo fee na-nay.-

Here's a truth you shouldn't deride
I-ko, i-ko, un-day.
Jesus died to ransom His Bride.
Jock-a mo fee na-nay.-
Talk-in’ ’bout, hey now ! hey now ! i-ko, i-ko, un-day
Jock-a-mo fee-no ai na-nay. - jock-a-mo fee na-nay.-

(keep rhythm going as it fades out slowly)

Rare Find


This is a very rare recording of Jacob "Bagpipes" Arminius. Found it while I was visiting a friend in the Republic of Armenia last Tuesday.
