- To Carrigagulla one fine summer morning I strayed,
To view the green fields and the trees there affording fine shade,
But who should I meet but a comely nice looking dame,
And for tons of bright gold of course
I wont tell her name.

To view this nice girl, it being in the evening late,
She was standing a while just behind at Mac's iron gate,
To welcome me kindly this neat looking lass sure she came,
And for tons of bright gold of course
I wont tell her name.

To Ballinagree when I see my love coming to prayers,
My heart fills with delight when a charming nice girl I stare,
One glass of her health at all times I am willing to drain,
And for tons of bright gold of course
I wont tell her name.(continues on next page)- Collector
