  1. Local Songs - November Keady Fair

    Share Share Post
    Composed by Neal Doran, Listarkelt, Keady.
    I'll sing a song, it won't be long I really do declare,
    I'm going to sell my Fanny in November Keady Fair,
    She's be seen no more in the hay stack,
    Where she used to wag her tail,
    She'll be seen no more in the garden
    Eating the lovely heads of kale
    She'll be seen no more on the kitchen floor,
    Where she cut many a square,
    Since I parted with my Fanny in November Keady Fair.
