  1. Lovely Cappawhite

    When I was in dear Ireland, my mind was light and free
    I sported with my comrades wherever fun used be
    In rambling and in gambling always took delight
    Al in my own dear native home sweet lovely Cappawhite

    Many a pleasant day I spent on the Anglesea new line
    Where with the boys and girls I sported many a time
    We always went together where pleasure did unite
    And i'll ne'er forget each day we met at the fair of Cappawhite
