Dance to your Daddy by Hugh S. Roberton — Lyrics
Dance to your Daddy, my bonnie laddie,
Dance to your Daddy, my bonnie Lamb!
Ye shall get a fishie in a little dishie,
Ye shall get an eggie an' a bit o' ham.
Dance to your Daddy, my bonnie laddie,
Dance to your Daddy, my bonnie Lamb!
Ye shall get a pony, fit to ride for ony,

About Dance to your Daddy
Hugh S. Roberton's arrangement of the traditional Scottish folk song "Dance to your Daddy" is set for three-part women's voices (SSA) in English. The text offers a playful and affectionate picture of a parent promising delightful treats and a pony to a child who dances for their father. It's a charming and lively piece, perfect for showcasing the bright sound of a treble choir. The simple, joyful message and infectious rhythm make it a delightful choice for a variety of occasions, capturing the carefree spirit of childhood and familial love in a bright, engaging setting.
