A Song
“Brian O' Lynn had no coat to put on he got an old goat skin to make him one”
A Song.
Brian O' Lynn. Brian O' Lynn had no coat to put on
He got an old goat-skin to make him one
He planted the horns right under his chin
They will answer for pistols, says Brian O' Lynn.Brian O' Lynn had no trousers to wear
He got an old sheep-skin to make him a pair.
With the skinny side out and the woolly side in
It's nice, light and cool, says Brian O' Lynn.Brian O' Lynn had no watch to wear
He got an old turnip and scooped it out bare
He planted a cricket right under the skin
They will think it's a-ticking, says Brian O' Lynn.(continues on next page)- Collector
