That Man With Dancing Feet

I remember him that man with dancing feet He was the finest dancer in Millstreet At seventy he still seemed in his prime And he could dance all night till closing time. In the Bush Bar Con and Kitty ruled the floor Along with Cassidy and his wife from Rathmore They showed the younger dancers how 'twas done And at jigs and reels they were second to none. Some who did not know him thought him to be shy But I knew Con D since I was young boy And he always seemed to see the brighter side And life for him was there to be enjoyed. He lived in Coolikerane all of his life And from Kiskeam twelve miles north he brought his wife And the great wide World he had no wish to see I've always envied People such as he. He was always known by the nickname of Con D Perhaps to distinguish him from his cousin Connie C And if you asked for Con O Connor some might say Who is this man O Connor anyway? .
