A folk song is often a story

   Anchors Aweigh - - Stand Navy down the field, - Sails set to the sky. - We'll never change our course, - So Army you steer shy-y-y-y. - Roll up the score, Navy, - Anchors Aweigh. - Sail Navy down the field - And sink the Army, sink the Army Grey. - 2. Get underway, Navy, - Decks cleared for the fray, - We'll hoist true Navy Blue - So Army down your Grey-y-y-y. - Full speed ahead, Navy; - Army heave to, - Furl Black and Grey and Gold - And hoist the Navy, hoist the Navy Blue - - 3. Blue of the Seven Seas; - - Gold of God's great sun - Let these our colors be Till - All of time be done-n-n-ne, - By Severn shore we learn - Navy's stern call: - Faith, courage, service true - With honor over, honor over all.

 
 

What has been said about Irish Folk Bands.      

Quotations about irish folk bands and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-

Folksongs must be dressed to be taken from the fields to the city. In urban attire, however, they are awkward and uncomfortable. Their apparel must be cut in a fashion that will not hinder their breathing. Whether for chorus or for piano, the accompaniment should always be of such a nature as to make up for the lost fields and village. ~ Zoltãn Kodãlv
