If you haven't yet heard this song, composed and sung by the Corrigan Brothers, an Irish folk group, do go to the link below to see an animated version - my personal favorite! (You will also find other versions on YouTube.com of the Corrigan Brothers singing.)A friend drew my attention to this tom-foolery yesterday. This is light-hearted fun that is perfect for taking our minds off the realities of today. All of us with links to Maritime Canada really understand how much fun can be had with this sort of parody.
Word is that Barack Obama's great, great, great grandfather, Falmouth Kerney, resided in Moneygall (Ireland) before emigrating to the United States in 1850. The animated version gives "dancing" lyrics and is absolute fun. ENJOY!
