The Orange and the Green

Oh, it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen.
My father, he was Orange and me mother, she was green.

My father was an Ulster man, proud Protestant was he.
My mother was a Catholic girl, from county Cork was she.
They were married in two churches, lived happily enough,
Until the day that I was born and things got rather tough.

Baptized by Father Riley, I was rushed away by car,
To be made a little Orangeman, my father's shining star.
I was christened "David Anthony," but still, inspite of that,
To me father, I was William, while my mother called me Pat.

With Mother every Sunday, to Mass I'd proudly stroll.
Then after that, the Orange lodge would try to save my soul.
For both sides tried to claim me, but i was smart because
I'd play the flute or play the harp, depending where I was.

Now when I'd sing those rebel songs, much to me mother's joy,
Me father would jump up and say, "Look here would you me boy.
That's quite enough of that lot", he'd then toss me a coin
And he'd have me sing the Orange Flute or the Heros of The Boyne

One day me Ma's relations came round to visit me.
Just as my father's kinfolk were all sitting down to tea.
We tried to smooth things over, but they all began to fight.
And me, being strictly neutral, I bashed everyone in sight.

My parents never could agree about my type of school.
My learning was all done at home, that's why I'm such a fool.
They've both passed on, God rest 'em, but left me caught between
That awful color problem of the Orange and the Green.

Heel y'ho boys, let her go, boys

Bring her head round now all together

Heel y'ho boys, let her go boys

Sailing homeward to Mingulay!

What care we tho' white the Minch is

What care we for wind and weather?

Let her go boys, every inch is

Wearing homeward to Mingulay!

Wives are waiting on the bank, boys, .

Looking seaward from the heather.

Pull her 'round boys, and we'll anchor

'Ere the sun sets at Mingulay!

freesheet Music Nancy Spain

Of all the stars that ever shone,
Not one does twinkle like your pale blue eyes;
Like golden corn at harvest time your hair.
Sailing in my boat the wind gently blows,
And fills my sails;
Your sweet scented breath is everywhere.

No matter where I wander,
I'm still haunted by your name;
The portrait of your beauty stays the same.
Standing by the ocean,
Wondering where you've gone, if you'll return again;
Where is the ring I gave to Nancy Spain?

Daylight peeping through the curtain
Of the passing night-time is your smile;
The sun in the sky is like your laugh.
Come back to me, my Nancy,
Linger for just a little while;
Since you left these shores I know no peace nor joy.

On the day in spring when the snow starts to melt,
And streams to flow,
With the birds I'll sing to you a song;
In the while I'll wander down by bluebell grove,
Where wildflowers grow;
And hope my lovely Nancy will return.

freesheet music Early On Morning

Early one morning,just as the sun was rising
I heard a yound maid sing in the valley below
"Oh,don't deceive me;oh,never leave me!
How could you use a poor maiden so?"

Remember the vows that you made to me truly,
Remember how tenderly you nestled close to me
Gay is the garland,fresh are the roses
I've got from the garden to bind over thee

Here I now wander alone as I wonder
Why did you leave me to sigh and complain?
I asked of the roses,why should I be forsaken?
Why must I here in sorrow remain?

Through yonder grove by the stream that is running
There you and I have so merrily played
Kissing and courting and gently sporting
Oh,my innocent heart you've betrayed

Soon you will meet with another pretty maiden
Some pretty maiden you'll court her for a while
Thus ever ranging,turning and changing
Always seeking for a girl that is new

Thus sung the maiden her sorrows bewailing
Thus sung the maiden in the valley below
"Oh don't deceive me;oh,never leave me
How could you use a poor maiden so?

Wi’ a hundred pipers an’ a', an’ a’,
Wi' a hundred pipers an’ a’, an’ a',
We'll up an' gie them a blaw,
Wi’ a hundred pipers an' a’, an’ a',
Oh! It’s owre the Border awa', awa'
It’s owre the Border awa', awa’
We'll on and we’ll march to Carlisle ha'
Wi' its yetts, its castell, an' a’, an' a’

Wi' a hundredpipers an' a' an' a'
Wi' a hundredpipers an' a' an' a'
We'll up an'gie them a blaw, a blaw
Wi' a hundredpipers an' a' an' a'
Oh! our sodger lads looked braw, looked braw,
Wi’ their tartans, kilts an’ a', an’ a',
Wi’ their bonnets, an’ feathers, an’ glittering gear
An' pilbrochs sounding sweet and clear
Will they a’ return to their ain dear glen?
Will they a' return, our heiland men?
Second-sighted Sandy looked fu' wae
And mothers grat when they marched away
Chorus
The esk was swollen, sae red and sae deep
But shouther to shouther the brave lads keep
Twa thousand swam owre to fell English ground
An’ danced themselves dry to the pibroch’s sound
Dumbfounder’d the English saw---they saw---
Dumbfounder'd they heard the blaw, the blaw
Dumbfounder’d, they ran awa', awa'
From the hundred pipers anP aP, an' a'
Chorus
