  1. When I was young and had no sense,
    I bought a fiddle for eighteen pence,
    And all the tunes that I could play,
    Was get a cake and eat away.
    Mary E. Kenny.
    Cry baby cry baby ten pounds ten,
    Went to the market to buy a cock and hen,
    The cock would not crow nor the hen would not lay,
    Cry baby cry baby ten pound ten.
    Mary E. Kenny.
    On St. Patrick's day we'll drink the tea,
    And wallop the Protestants out of our way.
    Mary E. Kenny.
