Song
“As O moved down through Ballyleague town I linger for a while”

As I roved down through Ballyleague town I linger for a while
For I'm sure to meet my comrade boys
With a laughing pleasant smile

They are full of fun and glee
Going out to Barnacor
Some cailins for to see.

The flutes they merrily play
Musicianers are plenty in 81 or 2(continues on next page)
