[Verse 1]
C#m C#m C#m
Bridie was teaching out in Carysfort
C#m C#m
I was working in the bank
E B
Two paychecks every Friday
C#m
And a Morris Minor out the back
C#m C#m
But I was mad for jigs and reels
C#m C#m
Drinking dirty big pints of stout
E B
When the Bank of Ireland gave me the boot
C#m
They said, "Don't let the door hit your arse
E B C#m A E B C#m A
On the way out"
[Chorus]
C#m C#m C#m
Fiddlee, diddlee, deidely, dee
C#m C#m C#m
I was born to play the funky céilí
E B C#m A
Over the seas and far away, off to Americay
E E B
Fiddlee, diddlee, deidely, dee
C#m A
Where the wild, wild women are waitin' for me
E
Think of me, Bridie
B C#m A
Whenever you see me there on your MTV
E B
I love you, acushla, but how could I be
C#m A E B C#m A E B
Without me punky, funky céilí
C#m A
[Verse 2]
C#m C#m C#m
Bridie broke down and started to bawl
C#m C#m C#m
When I told her about me divorce from the bank
E B
She said "I've got news of me own a stor
C#m
I'm two months late, it's not with the rent"
C#m C#m
She said I'd have to be tellin' her da
C#m C#m
So we drove the Morris Minor to Cork
E B
The ould fella said "You've got two choices
C#m C#m E B C#m
Castration or a one way ticket to New York"
A E B C#m A
[Chorus]
C#m C#m C#m
Fiddlee, diddlee, deidely, dee
C#m C#m C#m
I was born to play the funky céilí
E B C#m A
Over the seas and far away, off to Americay
E E B
Fiddlee, diddlee, deidely, dee
C#m A
Where the wild, wild women are waitin' for me
E
Think of me, Bridie
B C#m A
Whenever you see me there on your MTV
E B
I love you, acushla, but how could I be
C#m A E B C#m A E B
Without me punky, funky céilí
C#m A
[Verse 3]
C#m C#m C#m
So here I am up on Bainbridge Avenue
C#m C#m
Still in one piece but glad I'm alive
E B
Drinking dirty big glasses of porter
C#m
Playin' me jigs and me reels and me slides
C#m C#m C#m
Think of you, Bridie, whenever I'm sober
C#m C#m C#m
Which isn't too often, I have to confess
E B
Take good care of the Morris Minor
C#m
Bad luck to your da
E B
And give the baby a great big kiss
C#m E B C#m A E B C#m A
From his daddy in the Bronx
[Outro]
E B C#m A
Oh Bridie, I'm still crazy about you, girl
E B C#m A
Does the baby look like me, Bridie?
E B C#m A
Has he got red hair and glasses?
E B C#m A
Oh, Bridie, sell the Morris Minor
E B C#m A
Come on out to America, girl
E B C#m A
The pubs never close over here
E B C#m A
I've got a palace up on Bainbridge Avenue
E B C#m A
I've got the biggest bed in the world, girl
E B C#m A
Oh, We can stay in it and make babies forever
(Fade)
