  1. The Wren Song

    Un ....... is a monthly man

    Mr ......... is a worthy man,
    And to his house we brought the wran.
    The wran, the wran as you may see.
    Is guarded up a holly tree.
    A bunch of ribbons by his side.
    And the Mungret boys to be his bride.
    Although he's small his family's great.
    Rise up good people and give us a treat.
    Hurray me boys, hurray.
