Subject: RE: Irish songs which aren't Irish
"Tramps and Hawkers" is maybe a song that sums it all up, in the verse:
I think I'll gang tae Paddy's Lan', I'm makin' up my mind For Scotland's greatly altered noo, I canna raise the wind But if I can trust in Providence, if Providence should prove true I'll sing ye's a' of Erin's Isle when I come back to you.
