GUEST,James Lyr Req: Willie Rambler (10) Lyr Req: Willie Rambler 07 Aug 06


Hello all,

Long time browser/reader and first time poster/requester here, so I guess I should preface said request with hearty thanks to all of those here on the board who have unknowingly helped me out in the past when it came to digging up lyrics. So there they are...

Anyway, any chance any of you out there on the cyber-folk scene happen to have the words to an Ulster song called "Willie Rambler"? I only have the first verse, which is:

When I was young and in my prime, at the age of twenty four
I left Lough Erne's lovely banks, to England I sailed o'er
'Twas there I met a maiden fair, of honor and renown
Of her then I did ask the way to famous London town.

Much obliged to anyone out there who can supply the rest of the lyrics, since I've had no luck myself. I'm an enthusiast of the Ulster singing tradition, and would love to add this one to my rep. in its entirety.

Regards,
James
