Biografía:
The Rankin Family is a Canadian folk music family group from Mabou, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia.
The Rankins come from a family of 12, all of whom would entertain the neighbours musically every third weekend as part of a ceilidh.
Five of the siblings began performing professionally in 1989. The Rankins released their own independent cassettes The Rankin Family (1989) and Fare Thee Well Love (1990) featuring original songs and a combination of traditional jigs, reels and Celtic folk songs.

Hey hey sweet darling
C G
Let's go dancing tonight
My clock has been ticking
C G
It tells me the time is just right
C
Well I woke up this morning
G
With a feeling I call lonesome and blue yeah
D C
And there's no need in asking - 'cause I know
G
You feel the same way too
G
Hey hey sweet darling
C G
Let's lay the whole thing down
This world if you let it
C G
Will drive you into the ground
C
I got twenty dollars and I know
G
That it should get us by the door
D
When the band starts playing
C G
How can they ask us for more
G* C (4 quick strums)
We may do the bump and grind
G* C (4 quick strums)
Shake around our little behinds
G*
Do some things that you normally do
G
On a Saturday night - and that's all right
G* C (4 quick strums)
We may drink a little too much
G* C (4 quick strums)
We may lose our fancy touch
G
And step outta line with reality
That's the way it should be
D C
And there's no need in asking - 'cause I know
G
You feel the same way too.

A lot of our words have been unkind
But that was yesterday

You know that'll always be true
D C
And there's no need in asking - 'cause I know

You feel the same way to
