   Old Ireland's Windy Nights
   Gather around me men of IReland
   And listen to my Song.
   About old Irelan'ds windy night
   I won't detain you long
   Sure there never was anight like it
   Nor one to keep in mind
   Like that night of Jan the 6th of 1839
   'The Kerry Cows you know they're small
   Went flying through the air
   It must have been a funny sight
   To seem them land in Clare
   She blew the peaks of Cuddy's Reek
   Then kept across the moor
   Sure the people thought they'd all be killed
   The way that wind did roar
   In County Tipperary not from from Galteemore
   A man named Tom O'Casey
   and his wife and children 4
   Were lifted from their beds that night
   The devil a lie I tell
   And landed bag & baggage
   In the town of Patrickswell.
   another family named Burk who lived near Skibbereen
   Were blown from Cork to Kerry they came down a Cahersiveen
   But they enjoyed their journed as they rode along the gale
   For neer a one of them work up at least so goes the tale
   In Limerick, that's my county, near the bog of Ballygrane,
   I often heard my father say how he and Jim McCann
   were coming form a wake that night
   Caher(?) Mac Coreen and all were lifted high into the air and blown to Donegal
