This is quite a mysterious song and every time I sing it I imagine that the text " gus ruball na muice" might have some connection with Ballnamuck. "ar baile atha na muice' the contraction of the towns name would be in keeping with the rest of the style..... such as Bucky Highlanders etc The Donegal version seems to include a lot of place names and Ballinamuck was certainly central to the whole French "adventure" "A pigs tail" seems very vague "a rabble of Mickeys" even more daft any takers?
