Spancill Hill |
| Last night as I lay dreaming of pleasant days gone by |
| My mind being bent on rambling to Ireland I did fly |
| I stepped on board a vision and followed with the wind |
| Till next I came to anchor at the cross near Spancill Hill |
| T’was on the 23rd June the day before the fair |
| When Ireland’s sons and daughters and friends assembled there |
| The young, the old, the brave, the bold came their duty to fill |
| At the parish church at Cluney just a mile from Spancill Hill |
| I went to see my neighbors to hear what they might say |
| The old ones were all dead and gone the young one’s turning grey |
| I met the tailor Quigley, he’s bold as ever still |
| Sure he used to mend my britches when I lived at Spancill Hill |
| I paid a flying visit to my first and only love |
| She’s fair as any lily and gentle as a dove |
| She threw her arms around me saying «Johnny I love you still» |
| She was Meg the farmers daughter and the pride of Spancill Hill |
| She was Meg the farmers daughter and the pride of Spancill Hill |
