Re: Not exactly a protest song . . . (none / 1)

The classic version is probably by the Dubliners...

although the version by its author, Phil Coulter is also good.

Re: Not exactly a protest song . . . (none / 1)

How lovely that you should find that tune and post it. Really made my day. Like both versions, but like the Coulter best, . . . and it juggled my addled mind into remembering the name Paddy Reilly, who was the artist that sang the version I remember back in the late 70's. Thanks again, Frank, you're a total sweetheart! :-)
