The Irish Descendants

The Irish Descendants are a folk group from the Atlantic province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. All the members, born of Irish emitters, were workers in the Newfoundland fishing industry before forming the band in 1990 out of the remnants of two former Newfoundland bands – The Descendants and Irish Coffee. The group helped to popularise traditional Newfoundland music to a wider Canadian audience in the early 1990s, along with other bands such as Great Big Sea. Their popularity within the province itself led to their selection as the official band of the province's 500th anniversary celebrations, during which they performed for the Queen. Tension within the group caused co-frontman D'Arcy Broderick to leave soon after this period, and their lineup has … more »

She'd never been there before 
She'd never been there before 
A young man asked her recently 
To come and sit upon his knee 
He tickled her in the ribs 
And he filled her with delight 
She'd never been there before 
But now she goes there every night 

Me sister Sue was always such a silly little goon 
She never really understood the proper way to swoon 
A young man asked her recently to sit upon his knee 
When she at last consented she behaved so bashfully 

She'd never been there before 
She'd never been there before 
She seemed so proud when Mr Brown 
Began to bounce her up and down 
He tickled her in the ribs 
And he thrilled her with delight 
She'd never been there before 
But now she goes there every night 

A friend of mine whose husband was a stingy little man 
Resolved herself to work upon a good old fashion plan 
While Willy was sleeping fast that night she said I'll take a chance 
Got out of bed and dove into the pockets of Willy's pants 

She'd never been there before 
She'd never been there before 
But she was awful pleased to see 
That Willy was sleeping peacefully 
She only took half a buck 
And it filled her with delight 
She'd never been there before 
But now she goes there every night 

One night a burly policeman was walking on his beat 
He happened to shine his flashlight in the alley down the street 
The cook was standing in the door she said oh deary me 
I feel so terrible lonesome will you keep me company 

He'd never been there before 
He'd never been there before 
He gave the cook a regular treat 
Along with a lovely roast of meat 
He tickled her in the ribs 
And he filled her with delight 
She'd never been there before 
But now she goes there every night
