Hi,
Could anyone help me with the words of a recitation written by Jim Nolan, Carlow. It goes


Patsy.... was the oldest man in the parrish
when he died he was past 98
and St. Peter was waiting to meet him
when he arrived at the big golden gates
You are the very man that I want said St. Peter
There is a few things I'd like to know
everyone that comes here are complaining
what's going on down below.

I found lots of references to Jim Nolan, especially in The Nationalist of Carlow and in Carlow People, but I couldn't find any web site that has the text of any of his poems.
