My Family lived in Wexford Town

Stopped travelling and settled down
Though me father kept a horse and cart
Oh we lived within the town

The people there misunderstood,
Nor did not know our ways,
So with a horse and car back on the road
To begin my travelling days

( :clap: a serious tune )

I knew that @TreatyStones wouldn’t let me down

My father was called The Fiddler Dunne
& I’m a fiddler too
& though I often felt his fist
Sure he taught me all I knew

I know I’ll never be as good,
But for that I feel no shame,
For the other things my father taught,
I am proud to bear his name

He taught me pride and how to live,
Though the road is hard and long,
And how a man will never starve,
With a banjo, fiddle or song…

@TreatyStones - post up the Damo Dempsey version please.

And and how to fight for what I own,
And what I feel is right,
And how to camp beside a ditch on a stormy winters night

Pecker’s daughter is on the Saturday night show.

The anti traveller brigade on here won’t be happy to see a successful, educated member of the travelling community on tele, according to them there is no such thing

Found this letter when going through my Grandfathers stuff earlier

Ya dirty thief, runt. Leave your grandad’s stuff alone.

They shared a hospital ward for a while and he would have been big into writing poetry and songs.

I lived beside a haltin site for few yrs in limerick and they are nothing but a dirty, thieving, horrible shower of fat cunts.
