Is thon the Pope's Ma down there?

Jaysus … I'm sorry I tore your fella's pixture up on stage thon time in Americkey. I was off my head on Night Nurse and Mundies. (Thon Enya one gave it to me in a big pint glass … sez she has a sloat o' it every night before she goes on stage!)

Anyway … you mind thon song I did with the Chieftains? "The Foggy Dew". Here's the update … "The Swaggerin' Billy Crew".

As I came down to Portydown one 12th day of July
Red, white and blue were the kerbs to view and proudly the flags did fly
And from the village of Magheralin, orangemen came hurryin' through
To take a stroll up Garvaghy Road with the swaggerin' Billy crew

From boul' Richill, those men of Bill, all decked out in gloves, snow-white
Came milling along for to join the throng to pay homage to thon big oul' fight
That was fought of late in the Free State between two foreign kings of old
Whoever'd have won, sure we'd all have been done and down the River Boyne been sold

As home we crawled, we wept and bawled cos they said that we couldn't march
And we gathered there in Waringstown square underneath our Orange arch
And we played our flutes in our Billy suits but the tunes has a deathly hue
And they cast a pall over one and all of the swaggerin' Billy crew
