    A bunch of ribbons by her side
    And the Killenaule boys to be her bride.
    As I was going to Killenaule
    I met a wren upon the wall.
    Up with my stick and I hit her a lick
    And walked her into the wrenboy's hall in Killenaule town
    They got money for singing and playing the music. In the evening they divide the money. Each person gets and equal share.
