Yes, it's one of those nice, mutually derisive songs:P I know I've seen an Irish history book with a lot of Orange lyrics, and this has gotten me wanting to look up a few that it seems I remember being in there. I believe "A Book of Irish Quotations" (I'm pretty sure that's what it was called) had some interesting ones. Neil, I assumed it was a marching route, too. So what do you think is the reason for that line? It doesn't seem like it would be just random lyrics!
