I love traditional songs, you find them all mixed up in each other. There are a few lines in the chorus that are almost straight out of "Come all ye fair and tender ladies"
For some variety, check out the Liam Clancy version of this song. Love his (now unfortunately forever silent) rich baritone voice. Lyrics are a little different too.
Mary used to babysit me when i was only 2 years old and living with my parents on charlemount street in Dublin. she has been a friend of the family for over 40 years now
What a privilege to have known a voice like hers and the person too. I was on holiday in Dublin at The Castle Hotel with my husband earlier this month,loved it saw wonderful sights of Ireland !
I am jealous now :(

You are well named.
Humility is a quality worth the learning.
When we acknowledge the beauty in others, we come to know the beauty of ourselves.
May Peace and maturity be part of your life's journey.

How happy I am to come upon this song by Mary Black!
She's one of the greatest artists I've ever known.
There's a special place in my heart for Mary Black and the beautiful music she's brought to my life.
