I was doing a search for this song and found this thread, but the version I'm looking for is the one recorded by Altan and also by Danu. The frog is never mentioned in their versions, but it is clearly the the courting song. The chorus is the part I need. First verse goes: Uncle Rat went out to ride Kitty alone, kitty alone Uncle Rat went out to ride Kitty alone and I Uncle Rat went out to ride Sword and buckle by his side (to me cax ma kerry ..... can't really make out any of this chorus!) Other verses: Lady Mouse will you marry me Ask my Uncle Rat said she Uncle Rat will I marry Lady Mouse Yes kind sir and half my house Lady Mouse where will the wedding be Ask my Uncle Rat said she Uncle Rat where will the wedding be Up at the top of a holly tree. Any help would be appreciated. Bekki
