    That he got to playing ball,
    Ann see the Fiddler Carolan
    So gracefully advance
    To sing some comic opera
    At the Bailieboro Dance.
    The Reillys and the Cassidys
    Will be there you to greet
    The Kings from dear old Curkish
    And McCalls from Thomas Street
    Or Maxwell from the corner
    Dont miss this splendid chance
    You will find them all to-gether
    At the Bailieboro Dance.
    The Cullens, Clarkes and Carrolls,
    McFaddens and McBreens,
    With Harris Parr from sweet Lisgar
    Will represent the Green
    And Mickey Dunn with young Dan Gunn
    Will fall into a trance
    When they meet the painter Rogers
    At the Bailieboro Dance.
