Thread Name: Irish songs which aren't Irish
Subject: RE: Irish songs which aren't Irish
Okay, I'm big enough for this.

The Unicorn is one of my favorite songs, and has been from the time I was a little package puppy. My favorite rendition is from the Irish Rovers.

(although I must admit I've never been subjected to cheesy "hand movements").

"There were green alligators,
and long neck geese,
some humpty back camels
and some chimpanzees,
some cats and rats and elephants,
but sure as your born,
the loveliest (song) of all was the Unicorn."

So there. Pppttthhhhhhhh.
