    Attend to me I pray,
    If you're a thorough sporter,
    And hear what I've to say,
    This week in the "Reporter
    It would surely be a shame
    My duty I'd be lackin'
    If I did not sing
    The races of Ardbraccan
    (2)
    For there on Thursday next,
    The Ultan boys intend it,
    To hold high carnival,
    The sport it should be splendid,
    The programme it is strong,
    The pistol will be crackin'
    Close on a score of times,
    Next Thursday in Ardbraccan.
