“Hurragh my boys from shore to shore. Will sing and dance and drink go lore.”
276Hurragh my boys from shore to shore, Will sing and dance and drink galore,
Will spend the cash we have in store
At Knockbarron races,
The dairy maid will have her cow,
The farmer boy will leave the plough,
The butcher will leave his stall and all
And go to the Knockbarron races.
Biddy with the basket, there she goes,
Nimble trips with the heels and toes,
Hurragh my boys from shore to shore, Will go to the Kockbarron racesTold by John Costello,

To make an attack upon Thomas Finn's Mill.
