    Now Mullinahone is a dirty hole,
    A Church without a steeple,
    Country mugs at every door,
    Insulting the dasent people
    II
    Johnnie Kelly had a pig,
    It was a the world's wonder,
    Tommie had another one,
    That could'nt be tore asunder
    III
    These two pigs went off one day,
    For they were out of feeding,
    Two Fethard rogues cut off their tails,
    And sent them home all bleeding.
