   An old Song
   Mickey Casey's Christening
   I
   Down by Elphin lived one Mickey Casey.
   And Mary, the wife, kept a neat shebeen.
   They lived on potion free and 'aisy'
   And sold Yankee bacon fat and lean
   Chorus
   With lads and lasses and lungs of leather
   Bachelors and aids agrah
   Sure its time to stick together
   For Casey's christening. hear! hurrah!

   Down in the room which was not spacious
   All around on every seat.
   Sat boys so clean, and girls so gracious,
   Like pins and needles nice and neat.

   Friends into the house came swarming.
   To see the christening that we had
   Some of them said young Darby was charming
   The living picture of his dad.
   4.
   The piper then began for the dancing.
   Thomas Murphy bounced upon the floor.
   But since this madman began his prancing
   Such jigs and reels were never see before.
