I'm a music teacher in Limerick, Ireland and I teach an older gentleman who wants to learn to accompany a song his father sang. He can recollect fragments of the song but my Google searches for the lyrics have shown nothing. He reckoned it was played on local radio too. I would like to know origins of song and missing lyrics if anyone can help. I was at the Limerick station, I met an auld relation, Of no sweet occupation, And she came from God knows where, Little did it matter to me, With my lady blue(by?) and by (I?), On the road that's leading down to Killaloe I popped into misses Chawkes(Tonks?), And we had some pleasant talks, She drank whisky I drank whisky too, On the thought that we got drunk, With my lady blue(by?) and by (I?), On the road that's leading down to Killaloe
