forgotten song title
When I was a child my Irish grandmother used to sing me a song - I can only remember a few phrases (I am now 62 so memory is fading - fast. My father cannot remember the title or even if it was actually a writtern down sogn or just passed down from generation to generation. She was an immigrant during the eary 1900's - married and then her son married into my mother's family who owned a fair ground. All I can emember are the following phrases. Can anyone please help me? It would make my dad very happy. He is now 87 and in failing health.
