Town Of Ballybay - Larry Smith[00:00:00]

In the town of ballybay there was a lassie dwelling[00:00:02]

I knew her very well and her story's well worth telling[00:00:05]

Her father kept a still and he was a good distiller[00:00:07]

But when she took to the drink well the devil wouldn't fill her[00:00:10]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong ring-a-ding-a-daddy-o[00:00:12]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong whack fol the daddy o[00:00:15]

She had a wooden leg that was hollow down the middle[00:00:20]

She used to tie a string on it and play it like a fiddle[00:00:22]

She fiddled in the hall and she fiddled in the alleyway[00:00:24]

She didn't give a damn for she had to fiddle anyway[00:00:27]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong ring-a-ding-a-daddy-o[00:00:29]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong whack fol the daddy o[00:00:32]

She said she couldn't dance unless she had her wellie on[00:00:37]

But when she had it on she could dance as well as anyone[00:00:39]

She wouldn't go to bed unless she had her shimmy on[00:00:41]

But when she had it on she would go as quick as anyone[00:00:44]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong ring-a-ding-a-daddy-o[00:00:46]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong whack fol the daddy o[00:00:49]

She had lovers by the score every tom and dick and harry[00:00:53]

She was courted night and day but still she wouldn't marry[00:00:56]

But then she fell in love with a fellow with a stammer[00:00:59]

When he tried to run away well she hit him with a hammer[00:01:01]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong ring-a-ding-a-daddy-o[00:01:03]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong whack fol the daddy o[00:01:06]

She had children up the stairs she had children by the byre[00:01:10]

And another ten or twelve sitting roaring by the fire[00:01:13]

She fed them on potatoes and on soup she made with nettles[00:01:15]

And lumps of hairy bacon that she boiled up in the kettle[00:01:18]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong ring-a-ding-a-daddy-o[00:01:20]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong whack fol the daddy o[00:01:23]

She led a sheltered life eating porridge and black pudding[00:01:27]

And she terrorized her man until he died quite sudden[00:01:30]

And when her husband died well she wasn't very sorry[00:01:32]

She rolled him in a bag and she threw him in a quarry[00:01:35]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong ring-a-ding-a-daddy-o[00:01:37]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong whack fol the daddy o[00:01:40]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong ring-a-ding-a-daddy-o[00:01:42]

Ring-a-ding-a-dong whack fol the daddy o[00:01:45]
