Hello I'm new here-a Canadian in Seoul, Korea. I'm looking for the lyrics, music and title to this song. The Waterboys used to play it at their concerts. It's an old traditional (ballad?)tune. It goes something like:

Me and my Mari, down by the water down by the water my Mari and me...

Please help me, I've been looking for it for about 2 years. BTW I front a Celtic band called 'Kellswater.' It's a cross between the 'Book of Kells' and the Waterboys. Thank you if you can help. Write me.

Sincerely Yvon Malenfant (Harpo) ymalenfant@hotmail.com
