Lord Of The Dance - The Dubliners

I danced in the morning

When the world was young

I danced in the moon

And the stars and the sun

I came down from Heaven

And I danced on the Earth

At Bethlehem I had my birth

Dance then wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he

I danced for the scribes and the pharisees

They wouldn't dance

They wouldn't follow me

I danced for the fishermen James and John

They came with me so the dance went on

Dance then wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he

I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame

The holy people said it was a shame

They ripped me and they stripped me

And they hung me high

Left me there on the cross to die

Dance then wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he

I danced on a Friday when the world turned black

It's hard to dance with the devil on your back

They buried my body they thought I was gone

But I am the dance and the dance goes on

Dance then wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he

He call me done and left high

I am left that you never never die

I let you you let me

I am loser and dance said he

Dance then wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he
