Hello all!


I heard a song a long, long, while ago, probably around 10 years or so. It was either on Thistle and Shamrock, or possibly Mountain Stage. It was a guy singing a cappella, sounded like he was Irish. The song was about a family named Dunn, and the chorus went something like this,

"For there was high Dunn, low Dunn
Under Dunn and over Dunn
All the other younger Dunns in a night, they run
there was old Dunn and young Dunn,
and young Dunn's youngest son.
Young Dunn will be a Dunn
when auld Dunn's done."

The rest of the song was mostly more puns on the name. Has ANYBODY heard this song, who it's by, etc.? A long-time folkie that I know listened to the bit of it I have on tape, and he couldn't place either the singer (very rare for him) or the song. :( I'd vastly appreciate any info from somebody who has heard this. Thanks!
