  1. (continued from previous page)
    The skin grew thick upon them
    And the bones they have them cut
    (6)
    The last boy I hired
    May the Lord reward Dan
    One call is all he ever got
    From Brady of Killann
    (7)
    I was everyday expecting
    For Jack Connell and the van
    For to take me from the villian
    In the parish of Killann
