    As we strolled out the other night#
    We met a jolly band
    They told us of the fun they had
    And of what they were going to plan
    So we set out together and we joined in unity
    We strolled across the Curragh's till we came to Yeratys

    When we went in we all sat down
    And then the fun began. Mary talked of Ballyduff and how she met with Tom
    III
    Who then came in but the blaguards from the "Ring"
