Uncle John's Band

Well the first days are the hardest days

Don't you worry anymore

Cause when life looks like easy street

There is danger at your door

Now think this through with me

Let me know your mind

Oh what i want to know

Is are you kind



Now it's a buck dancers choice my friends

Better take my advice

You know all the rules by now

And the fire from the ice

Now will you come with me

Won't you come with me

Oh what i want to know

Will you come with me



Sister well i declare

Have you seen the like

Their walls are built of cannon balls

Their motto is don't tread on me

Come hear uncle john's band

Playing to the tide

Come with me or go alone

He's come to take his children home



It's the same story the crow told me

It's the only one he knows

Like the morning sun you come

And like the wind you go

Ain't no time to hate

Barely time to wait

Oh what i want to know

Where does the time go



I live in a silver mine

And i call it beggers tomb

I've got me a violin

And i beg you call the tune

Anybody's choice

I can hear your voice

Oh what i want to know

How does the song go



Come hear uncle john's band

By the riverside

Got some things to talk about

Here beside the rising tide

Come hear uncle john's band

Playing to the tide

Come on come on or go alone

He's come to take his children home



Whoa what i want to know

How does the song go



Come hear uncle john's band

By the riverside

Got some things to talk about

Here beside the rising tide

Come hear uncle john's band

Playing to the tide

Come on along or go alone

He's come to take his children home



Come hear uncle john's band

(brother)

By the riverside

(ain't no time to hate)

Got some things to talk about

(sister)

Here beside the rising tide

(ain't no time to wait)



Come hear uncle john's band

Playing to the tide

Come on along or go alone

He's come to take his children home
