Song#3 Recorded at HarmonyArts 2013. A rousing drinking song in slip-jig time. Everyone has heard the English version covered most notably by Traffic in the 1970's. This is the Irish version from County Cork. Tim got it from Ron Kavana. The barley plant is anthropomorphized and his ignoble journey from seed in the ground to deposit in the urinal is both celebrated and lamented.
