- I am a roving hackler lad
That loves the Shamrock shore.
My name is Pat mc Donnell
And my age is eighty four
Been loved and well respected
By the friends and neighbours all
Around sweet Stradone I am well known
aroi Around Laragh and Grousehall.
When I was young I danced and sung
And drank good liquor too.
Eeach sheeving shop our soul did drop
Of the realway mountain dew
The poteen still on every hill
The peelers had no call
On Patrick's Day I love to stray,
For pleasure round Grousehall
I rambled round from town to town
For hackling was my trade
None can deny it's awful cry(continues on next page)- Collector
