Sol Vee Cheese War

Lyrics

[Verse 1] In Sol Vee dawn broke hard Wheels on the market stones Rind shields up by the pier Curds flew like broken bones Mayo clan in blue cloth Brie mark on the gate We counted every barrel Then kicked it over late [Pre-Chorus] Hear the town bells ring Hear the cider spill Old hands on the handles Young blood hungry still One shout shook the square One spark lit the line The fall breeze came first Then the war drum time [Chorus] Chuck that cheese No mercy see! Chuck that cheese In Sol Vee! Chuck that cheese Let the curds fly free Festival falls And the breeze bites me [Verse 2] Past the ash wood stalls Through the pumpkin rows The cheddar cart came rolling With a dent in its nose We locked our shoulders tight We laughed with no fear Then a wheel took flight And split the harvest beer [Pre-Chorus] Hear the town bells ring Hear the cider spill Old hands on the handles Young blood hungry still One shout shook the square One spark lit the line The fall breeze came first Then the war drum time [Chorus] Chuck that cheese No mercy see! Chuck that cheese In Sol Vee! Chuck that cheese Let the curds fly free Festival falls And the breeze bites me [Bridge] When the moon climbed low And the bonfires glowed Even rivals sang With their faces rubbed in snow A wedge in the mud A laugh in the rain The cheese war ended But we came back again [Final Chorus] Chuck that cheese No mercy see! Chuck that cheese In Sol Vee! Chuck that cheese Let the curds fly free Festival falls And the breeze bites me Chuck that cheese Raise a tankard high Chuck that cheese Till the pie sky dies
