Looking for two songs now. Assuming you know MARCHING THROUGH GEORGIA by Henry C. Work, there are two other songs I know of that use the same tune, both Irish, and both of which I want the lyrics to because I can not understand the Irish brogue.
1. Come in -- Done by the Irish Rovers on LP 'The Unicorn'. Some lyrics:
Chorus:
Come in, come in, we'll do the best we can
Come in, come in, bring your whole bloody clan
Take it slow and easy -- [gibberish]
One verse
I've travelled east, I've travelled west, I rove from town to town
I cut the harvest down [gibberish] people up & down?
[gibberish]the welcome mat is always waitin' me
Come fill your glass along with us and sing 'Ould Ireland Free'
2. Victoria -- Two or three Irish sisters on some CD anthology series.
Chorus:
Victoria, they're a-comin' for you soon
Victoria, ?leif-nagle and the moon?
?They're shinin' by September Cross around the Florida Tune?
They're a-comin' down for you, Victoria
(I swear that's what it sounds like! That's the best I can transcribe! Help!)
The Lion and the Unicorn were fighting for the Crown
And ?then? the Irish turned around, the wall came tumblin' down
The second ?jars? departed to [gibberish]
But they're comin' down for you, Victoria
If anyone can make any sense out of this, I'd be much obliged.Jennifer
