Traditional | |
Dance, dance the shaking of the sheets | |
Dance, dance when you hear the piper | |
Playing, everyone must dance | |
The shaking of the sheets with me. | |
Bring away the beggar, bring away the king | |
And every man in his degree | |
Bring away the oldest and the youngest thing | |
Come to death and follow me. | |
Bring away the merchant who made his money in France | |
And the crafty banker too | |
When you hear the piper, you and I must dance | |
The dance that everyone must do. | |
Dance, dance the shaking of the sheets | |
Dance, dance when you hear the piper | |
Playing, everyone must dance | |
The shaking of the sheets with me. | |
I'll find you in the courtrooms, I'll find you in the schools | |
When you hear the piper play | |
I'll take away the wise men, I'll take away the fools | |
And bring their bodies all to clay. | |
All the politicians of high and low degree | |
Lords and ladies, great and small | |
Don't think that you'll escape and need not dance with me | |
I'll make you come when I do call. | |
Dance, dance the shaking of the sheets | |
Dance, dance when you hear the piper | |
Playing, everyone must dance | |
The shaking of the sheets with me. | |
It may be in the day, it may be in the night | |
Prepare yourselves to dance and pray | |
That when the piper plays ‘The Shaking of the Sheets’ | |
You may to Heaven dance the way. | |
Dance, dance the shaking of the sheets | |
Dance, dance when you hear the piper | |
Playing, everyone must dance | |
The shaking of the sheets with me. | |
Dance, dance the shaking of the sheets | |
Dance, dance when you hear the piper | |
Playing, everyone must dance | |
The shaking of the sheets with me. |
