Hi,If you check out the "Roger Whittaker" section of your record store. He did a lovely version of "star of the County Down."
Just checked the database it only has one of the two verses I was talking about.... it has the "I've travelled a bit one"
The one which isn't there goes.
"She'd a soft brown eye and a look so sly
And a smile like a rose in June
And you hung on each note from her lily white throat
As she lilted an Irish tune
At the pattern dance you were held in a trance
As she danced through a reel or a jig
And when her eyes she'd roll, she'd coax upon my soul
a spud from a hungry pig."
Makes you wonder why people tend not to sing this verse, eh??!!
