  1. Song - Ballyhogue Hurlers (continued)

    (continued from previous page)
    When the game it was ended,
    And the hurling was over,
    Neither of them knew
    Which of them won.
    The umpires and referee
    Both were consulted
    But neither of them gave way
    To the "Stars" nor the "'Hogues."
