Intro:
[G] [G] [G] [G]
Welcome to the Big Uke Jam, We’re so glad you’re here
It’s Christmas time in Belfast In the [G7] head of the Deeeeeer
It’s [C] time to do the roll call, to see which groups are [G] here
Now [D7] don’t forget to holler, and give a great big cheer![G]
I don’t hear the train coming, cause Translink is on strike,
But if it was then Ballymena [G7] ukes would drop the mic,
[C]Don’t you know they’re famous, And Fergal Sharkey’s a [G]fan?
He [D7]tweeted all about them... Our Ballymena ‘hi’ clan![G]
Lisburn Ukes are here tonight and Banbridge ukes are too
I’m not sure what the difference is, we [G7] haven’t got a clue,
But they’re[C] great at raising money...For any [G]charity...
They [D7] use the uke to spread the love ... In their community [G]
All the way from Newcastle – the one in county Down
Anchor ukes have sailed right in,[G7] far from their home town
But [C] Not as far as Dundalk, those folks will need a rest! [G]
I [D7]hear they only came up...to win the jumper contest! [G]
I bet there’s rich folks jamming from that Fancy BANnnngooor
They’re prob’ly strumming PONO ukes while [G7] eating caveeoorrr
And [C] up from down the country is Elma’s Orchard Ukes [G]
It[D7] must be drinking cider that gives them all good looks. [G]
Now Hetty is a big hitter in Belfast Uke it’s true
She’s broken 3 cajons now playing [G7] Folsom prison blues
And you’d [C] better keep an eye out... I hear there’s CRUKES around [G]...
It’s [D7]just that lot from Crossgar – they make a wile good sound. [G]
Now a very special mention to some groups from not round here
They’ve come across from Glasgow - I [G7] think it was for the beer
[C] Rainbow Southside strummers, are OUR new Scottish FAM, [G]
We [D7]hope you have a great time, at Belfast Christmas Uke Jam [G]
