Subject: Another Turf on the Fire From: Pablo Date: 18 Sep 99 - 10:32 PM I was in north County Mayo this summer and heard an old song along the lines of "Throw Another Turf on the Fire, Molly" about an old man and woman looking back over the years. This was about 5:00 am in a pub with only about three people including myself. Does this ring any bells? If nothing comes up I'll try to track it down by mail. Thanks, all. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Another Turf on the Fire From: Stewie Date: 19 Sep 99 - 01:34 AM It's probably a variant of 'Put Another Log on the Fire' which is in the Digitrad links. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Another Turf on the Fire From: Stewie Date: 19 Sep 99 - 08:48 AM My apologies, Pablo, that silly suggestion just sprang to mind. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Another Turf on the Fire From: Martin Ryan Date: 20 Sep 99 - 07:26 AM Pablo I suspect I've heard the song under similar circumstances! My recollection of the chorus is something like: "Put more turf on the fire Mary-Anne...". Strong waltz-tune. I doubt that I have a set of words in my own collection - but will have a look.

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Another Turf on the Fire From: Brían Date: 10 Jun 01 - 09:13 PM Brakn, that's a nice song. Is it to a known air? |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Another Turf on the Fire From: Brakn Date: 11 Jun 01 - 04:12 AM Not that I know of Brian. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Another Turf on the Fire From: GUEST,Michael Moroney Date: 08 Apr 09 - 08:55 PM Hi there! That song Put More Turf on The fire was written in the 19th Century about my great grandfather Patsy Moroney although it has been recorded as Patsy Moloney. |
