History is reflected in the words of folk songs

   All For Me Grog - - Chorus: - Well it's all for me grog, me jolly jolly grog, - It's all for me beer and tobacco. - For I spent all me tin on the lassies drinking gin, - Far across the western ocean I must wander. - Where are me boots, me noggin', noggin' boots, - They're all gone for beer and tobacco. - For the heels they are worn out and the toes are kicked about - And the soles are looking out for better weather. - Chorus: - - 2. Where is me shirt, me noggin', noggin' shirt, - It's all gone for beer and tobacco, - For the collar is all worn, and the sleeves they are all torn, - And the tail is looking out for better weather.

 
 

Quotations 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
