  1. (continued from previous page)
    And Teresa she called
    And the "Colonel" he jumped out of bed
    And when he saw Jack,
    Laid out on his back
    I swear be that oath he is dead.
    Chorous.
    The boat on the Araglen Stream,
    So now do not think its a dream,
    For the sails were as plain as a ship
    on the main,
    And the boat sailing down by Kiskeam.
