Thread Name: Lyr Req: Old Bally Mo
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Old Bally Mo
The is a another verse at the conclusion of Old Ballymoe on Sean O'Neill version:

In the County Roscommon in the hailstorms and rain
If you're crossing the fields on your way to the train
Beware of a colleen that you don't know
She might well have been married in Old Ballymoe

The "Wit and Wisdom" album has other gems e.g. "If you don't bring home the bacon, you'll get treated like a pig", "McGee on the Moon", "A Young Woman of Ninety" and "Don't Call Me Early in the Morning." It was purchased from Irish Records International (Pembroke, Mass.)
At "http://www.irishrecords.com/seanoneill.html"    Incidently, the Cassette of the album is on sale for $5.49 -
