@coatbridgemadman Yo, make your way to the half barrel (formely the kiwi bar) in nenagh county tipp...youl find shane there most nights propping up the bar...be carefull though...those dogs bite!!!
I've only heard a live version and never read the lyrics...this is easily some of Shane's best poetry. Absolutely breath taking, raw and beautiful at the same time.
awesome!

Terrific song. And k5358 is right. The song quotes Fanny Power, an 18th Century Irish harp tune composed by O'Carolan.
