A Song
“This song was composed,”
This song was composed by John Brehony who was a native of lower Carrigans some time ago. It was composed when the people were sailing in thousands to America. The following is:-
All you Irish people where ever you be
I pray stand a moment and listen to me
Our sons and fair daughters are all going away
In thousands they're sailing to America
Chorus
So good luck to those people and save may they land
They're leaving their homes for a far distant land.(continues on next page)- Collector
