My father sang this song years ago and he was never sure of the lyrics even then, they have probably become corrupt over the years. It goes something like: Oh, Brian O'Linn was a scotsman born His legs they were long and his feet they were scorn with his belly gone in and his eyes gone out, I'm a hop-a-gone beauty says Brian O'Linn With your rantin' and and roarin' ogger and and boarum stockermen, soldiers, butchers and barbers hedgey-me-wedgemey gougin' pin we'll wallop them all says Brian O'Linn Any info on the title or spelling of the name to allow me to search it more successfully would be most appreciated. Thanks!
