  1. A Song

    “Mick Dockery was at it first and”

    Share Share Post
    Mick Dockery was at it first and he's at it still,
    And here comes Matthew Brennan with his charming flowerhill
    And here comes Johny Brennan with the ring up in his hand.
    And from six o'clock to seven he's whistling Mickie Rooney's band.
    And here comes Pat Hunt down from Dún bogs
    At any hour of morning you'll hear the rattle of his clogs.
