Uncle Dan

C C G C

C
She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle
                                    G              C
She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle

Let her go, let her go, you'll find another
                                     G           C
There's a lot of pretty women at the head of the River

C                          F
Now the widow Malone lived by the strand,
    G               C
For forty years without a man
C                         F
She danced around and she waved her fan
G                  C
Set her eyes on me Uncle Dan

C
She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle
                                    G              C
She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle

Let her go, let her go, you'll find another
                                     G           C
There's a lot of pretty women at the head of the River

C                          F
Now he would not listen to my advice
   G                         C
So he married her there on a wintery night
C                           F
She ate all the grub at the party fare
      G               C
Drank every man clean under his chair

C
She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle
                                    G              C
She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle

Let her go, let her go, you'll find another
                                     G           C

C                           F
Now when he got home on his wedding night
         G         C
Me Uncle Dan got a hell of a fright
C                 F
She hung her leg upon the wall
G                     C
Down on the floor her teeth did fall
C                  F
One glass eye, off came her hair,
G                          C
And down the road me Uncle Dan did tear

C
She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle
                                    G              C
She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle

Let her go, let her go, you'll find another
                                     G           C
There's a lot of pretty women at the head of the River

C                    F
They claim he ran to France or Spain
G                C
Sent letter home to her saying
C                        F
Darling if you ever need another man
        G                 C
You can count me out Love Uncle Dan

C
She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle
                                    G              C
She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle

Let her go, let her go, you'll find another

She can dance to the flute, dance to the fiddle
                                    G              C
She's as neat around the waist as a cow around the middle

Let her go, let her go, you'll find another
