A Local Song
“I swam the Blackwater, I fished in the Bride, And I chased the wild hare Round the blue mountain side.”
I
I swam the Blackwater,
I fished in the Bride,
And I chased the wild hare,
Round the blue mountain side.II
There is old Ferry Lane,
Where I used to play ball,
When I went to school,
To a man Johnny Wall.III
We may meet again,
In some far distant shore,
But never-oh never,
In the town of Lismore.Pauline O’Donnell,
