Tommy K.

Let's call out his name

Tommy K, Tommy K

Tommy K the DJ

Tommy K, Tommy K

It's not today nor yesterday

The times were different then

The dancing was in dance halls

It had to stop for lent

Ah but one man kept it going

With his home made twin-deck sounds

The bishop didn't like the craic

And the DJ left the town

Let's call out his name

Tommy K, Tommy K

Tommy K the DJ

Tommy K, Tommy K

Ah, give us the Locomotion

Gimme me dancing shoes

Give us the Mashed Potato

Give us the Boogalloo

And give us the words between the songs

To keep us on the floor

When Tommy's playing them records

We'll be all night wanting more

Let's call out his name

Tommy K, Tommy K

Tommy K the DJ

Tommy K, Tommy K

(Marakesh is the capital of Morocco)

He's brave and courageous

Upright and strong

He gives us inspiration

Helps us all to get along

He'll be a-climbing up the hit parade

Forever and a day

This song's in his memory

Immortal Tommy K

Let's call out his name

Tommy K, Tommy K

Tommy K the DJ

Tommy K, Tommy K

Let's call out his name

Tommy K, Tommy K

Tommy K the DJ

Tommy K, Tommy K

He'll be a-climbing up the hit parade

Forever and a day

This song's in his memory

Immortal... Tommy... Kavanagh
