  1. (continued from previous page)
    To know that Father Peter's cow,
    Has lots of grass and hay,
    And water from a plenteous stream,
    For ever rippling by,
    To irrigate the soil and
    quench her thurst when dry,
    Hurrah for the Carrickedmond men,
    Hurrah three time again,
    And a lusty cheer for the Sagart dear,
    And for the Carrickedmond men.
