Subject: RE: Origins: Irish Molly
My band is doing this one now. I brought it in and the boys liked it and want to include it in our St. Paddy's Day sets, so now I'm figuring out how to do it best.

Listening to the choruses by De Danann, I thought at first they were singing "Change your name; go on the game..."

But isn't "on the game" a euphemism for prostituion?

I like "Go on, be game" better, I think.
