12-stringer Lyr Req: Mick Stick - Boyne Water (49) RE: Lyr Req: Mick Stick - Boyne Water 19 Dec 13


My grandmother had this from her father (set to "Girl I Left Behind Me"):

Oh some fell here and some fell there
And some fell over yonder
Ten thousand Micks got killed with bricks
In the battle of the Boiling Water.

She was born in 1903 at Broomhill, Northumberland, but went to America as an infant. Her father was a collier, born in 1870 at Blyth.
