If it's Limerick, I'll ask the daddy, he'll know, but as he's over there right now, it might have to wait a while. |

Probably every town and village in Ireland has at least one song with its name in it. That's what I'd think was a local song. Some of them are sung all over, some just where they come from. |

There was a thread on it in the last year... if I remember rightly Philippa put in about 4 verses for it.... slainte alison |
