ruby murray - the old lammas fair lyrics

at the ould lammas fair in ballycastle long ago
i met a little colleen who set me heart a+glow
she was smilin’ at her daddy
buyin’ lambs from paddy roe
at the ould lammas fair in ballycastle+o
i seen her home that night
when the moon was shinin’ bright
from the ould lammas fair in ballycastle+o

at the ould lammas fair
boys, were you ever there?
were you ever at the fair in ballycastle+o?
did you treat your mary ann
to some dulse and yellow man
at the ould lammas fair in ballycastle+o

in flander’s fields afar while restin’ from the war
we drank bon sante to the flemish lassies, o
but the scene that haunts my memory
is kissin’ mary ann
her poutin’ lips all sticky from eatin’ yellow man
we crossed the silver margy
and strolled along the strand
from the ould lammas fair at ballycastle+o

at the ould lammas fair
boys, were you ever there?
were you ever at the fair in ballycastle+o?
did you treat your mary ann
to some dulse and yellow man
at the ould lammas fair in ballycastle+o?
there’s a neat little cabin
on the slopes of fair knocklayde
it’s lit by love and sunshine
where the heather honey’s made
while the bees ever hummin’
and our children’s joyous call
resounds across the valley when the shadows fall
i take me fiddle down
and me mary smilin’ there
brings back a happy mem’ry of the lammas fair

at the ould lammas fair
boys, were you ever there?
were you ever at the fair in ballycastle+o?
did you treat your mary ann
to some dulse and yellow man
at the ould lammas fair in ballycastle+o?
