Lyrics, but no attribution, on Tommy Makem's website -

Song (like manymany other good ones, sadly) not included among lyrics on Liam Clancy's site.

For whatever it may be worth, the LP jacket notes (by Pete Hamill) cited by fulurum above (album Flowers in the Valley, Columbia, The Clancy Brothers [with Bobby-- Makem gone by then; creative differences] are:
"Did Sean O'Casey write 'Easy and Slow?' Did he pick it up on the back of Thomas Street in Dublin, or hear it from some shawlie on Moore Street? I suppose we'll never know, but what matters is that we have the song, with its sly sense of seduction, and its final defiant shout that the singer does not care who cares, but that he will have his woman."
Indeed. Ahh, God bless them oul' Clancys. (And yes He does & will bless 'em, sez I --- even if He *does* read Liam's soon-to-be-released autobiography "The Mountain of the Women". God is a merciful God. I hope.) But dammitall Pete Hamill, some Mudcatters (and badass Guests even!) *do* care; and even *care* who cares! & now what's all this about Dominic Behan? Is there annything he DIDN'T write? Apart from The Patriot Game, of course. Jaysus.
Btw is anyone going to Liam's book-peddlng concert (with Robbie O'Connell) at Brookville, Long Island March 7? Or North Andover, MA, March 6, at Merrimack College? (Merri Mack's father's makin' Merri Mack marry me / nowait wrong curriculum) Is this thread creep? (Am *I* the thread creep?)
