Songs (continued)
“On the 8th November the news it was sent.”
(continued from previous page)of hay.”
Says Armstrong to Graham, “you must toe the line.
Go out to the hills for the lam and the blind.”
One old cow had a back like a sow
And the other had four or five bumps on her jaw.
Did you see McFeely our wee vet
Beside Willie More in the car he did sit.
The next man cam was Donall Abu
Says big Welsh to Paddy “Who sent for you?”
Alfie O’Neill was the man of the day,
He played the dead march as they all passed away.
