Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Night that O'Rafferty's Pig Ran Away
I think that we now have a complete version or two of O'Rafferty's Pig, if my memory serves me correctly. The one I remeber is where Mickey Malone, the heavyweight champion with the rolling pin, missed his first blow and hit Mrs. Mulroe (I thought it was Munroe, but who cares?) and shifted her bustle right under her chin. However, the pig kicking Malone is also colourful enough to be original. It's a great song, and what do you have against Val Doonican?
