Well, I'm certainly not going to say there aren't any, but when I played it with Woods (and Harrigan) in Canada in 2003, it was a lengthy concertina and pipes instrumental. Are there lyrics on the Woods Band version?

yes there are, but they only make out a small part of that lenghty tune

I bumped into Shane Martin in a pub on Sunday night and despite being a little under the weather, for some reason I remembered that you wanted the words to this song... he gave me his email address and I've been in touch with him so as soon as I get them, I'll pass them along...

EDIT: Anyone interested should check out his new band, 'Monto'

Sounds good, John. Can't get the Cd Tracks download to work though.
Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.

I managed one song download instead of the promised two, but it's better than nothing. Appropriately enough, the song is named "Monto" too. Good stuff, and I'm hoping I'll be able to track down a copy of the CD when it comes out.

Sorry! I can't find it anywhere. Just when I thought it was coming up, it was a blank page.
