Charles O'Boyle sang three verses of "Blackbirds and Thrushes" and he pointed out that there was another verse that was a little objectionable and the tradition around the country was not to sing that verse. So he also skipped it.

But that made curious, has anyone ever come across a verse that was more on the bawdy side? I wish we could find out what verse it was that he felt should be skipped.

Are there any texts from Ireland/N. Ireland with more than three verses?
