- Paddy Collin sis a nice young man
He owns a piece of land,
He'd win the heart of young and old
His features are so grand.
John Kenny is a nice young man
He is both stout and strong,
He'd make a tear roll down your cheek
To hear him sing a song.
And to find the author of these lines
Which recently has been wrote,
He is a young apprentice known as the Leatro Poet.
He forms all these penals as he makes the circle round
For to paint a wheel or dance a reel
His equals cannot be found.- Informant
