- (continued from previous page)Around Tattarea the people are queer
With their rocks and whiny fields
There is Rodgers and McCullagh
Beside the thirteen Sheels.(9)
And little trick McCleary
Who is looking for a wife
To share his wealth and riches
His boss left him for life.

Come all you gay boys
And if yous want fun
For in soul yous will laugh
Before I am done
For "granias" going to weddings
Is a thing I will put down
And I will sing of the men
That drank Mulligan's pound(2)
