Jim I	Origins: Caroline the Greyhound/McGinty (6)	Origins: Caroline the Greyhound/McGinty	26 May 06
Has anyone any idea about the author of this song? It's very 'Glasgow' and has been around for a good number of years but I can't find it mentioned anywhere. A sample thereof: Caroline McGinty had a greyhound She was called Caroline And when she won races McGinty drank wine Noo McGinty he loved her And he took her for walks Up by Bellahouston And roon' by the docks Yes McGinty he loved her But it's no what ye think For the mair she won races The mair he could drink Noo an incident happened Tae McGinty's career For Caroline wiz a glutton As ye shortly shall hear. She wiz gaun like the clappers Wi' the field at her back When a white pudding supper Flew on tae the track etc
