A Local Song
“Good night boys good night ¶ I must now have to leave ¶ I must go to the village”
Good night boys good night,
I must now have to leave,
I must go to the village
For my groceries and my teas.
God bless this good old parish
Drombane it is by name,
Oh and reverend Father Corcoran
I wish him just the same
The stars were shining brightly
As I did walk along,
I heard a voice then singing
I took it to be a song.
Sergeant Murphy was standing on the cross
Watching out for lights,
And everyone that was passing
He bid them their good night(continues on next page)- Collector
