Well, well, I seem to have missed a few songs while I was out... Anyway, I'll do a song that I picked up at the regular Monday night sessions in Leeds a few years ago (and it's not in the DT database, so I'll give you the words as well):HOME BY BÉARNA (trad.)
In Scartaglen there lived a lass
And every Sunday after mass
She would go and take a glass
Before goin' home by BéarnaWe won't go home along the road
For fear that you might act the rogue
We won't go home along the road
We'll go home by BéarnaWe won't go home across the fields
The big thornins could stick in our heels
We won't go home across the fields
So we'll go home by BéarnaWe won't go home across the bog
For fear we might meet Kearney's dog
We won't go home across the bog
But we'll go home by BéarnaWe won't go down the milk boreen
The night is bright we might be seen
We won't go down the milk boreen
But we'll go home by BéarnaWe won't go home around the glen
For fear your blood might rise again
We won't go home around the glen
We'll go home be Béarna(Then repeat two first verses).
A great songs. One of these days I might just put together a MIDI file with the tune.
Who's next?
