  1. Local Songs - The Bellustown Races (continued)

    The following song was composed by Jack Walsh.

    (continued from previous page)
    cocks all splendid like peacocks
    In chattering groups the quality dine
    Sitting crossed legged like tailors the gentlemen dealers
    In chattering spout and come out mighty fine.
    Treasa Ní Gealbháin
    Riverstown
    Birr
    This song was told to me by Mrs. Madden Riverstown Birr age 76
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
