Lyrics
Bang the drums and clang the pans And put your knickers on, Then come out to the county square And join us in a song.
A song of Celebration, A Spring song, if you will, Drive away the Winter, Our hearts need a refill.
Chorus: Swish your skirts and twirl around And find yourself a Partner, Take hands to join the spiral dance, And, mind ya tie your garter!
The sun's begun to warm the earth, The first blooms start to sprout' Ostara bids you Celebrate And shoo the winter out.
Joy and laughter everywhere As good friends start to gather, Soon we'll hear the merry mob, Air filled with happy chatter.
Chorus: Swish your skirts and twirl around And find yourself a Partner, Take hands to join the spiral dance, And, mind ya tie your garter!
Swish your skirts and twirl around And find yourself a Partner, Take hands to join the spiral dance, And, be mind ya tie your garter!

Knickers and garters, oh my gosh, that sounds like fun dancing! What fun lyrics! And I learned a new word: I had to look up Ostara :-)
This flows beautifully and exudes a true sense of fun and happiness! It dances off the page with joy and made me smile, especially that last line!
I love this song and all the happy images it conveys: the knickers instruction made me laugh out loud and filled me with relief at the same time.
Oo shoo that winter out! I truly love this and can see it in my head. Awesome!
I like the festival feel and the call to the square. On my way!
What a great happy celebratory song. Nailed the skirmish topic perfectly
This makes me want to leap and dance (in my knickers)!
This song exudes music in every line! We need to come together in joy more often.
