Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I Had a Hat when I Came In (J Mooney)
(1) Has anyone got biographical data for James Mooney?

(2) I revised the third verse a titch:

"Casey kept on shouting, boys, till one-eyed Paddy Flynn
socked him across the whiskers with a bottle o' Tanqueray gin..."

Who has a rolling pin at an Irish wake?
