Lyrics
The Wren Song The wren, the wren, the king of all birds on St. Stephen's Day got caught in the furze So its up with the kettle and down with the pan give us a penny to burry the wren As I was gone to Killenaule I met the wren upon the wall I upped with me wattle and knocked him down and brought him into Carrick town Little bird, little bird, where is your nest? 'Tis in the bush that I love best Its in the tree, the holly tree where all the boys do follow me We followed the wren three miles or more three miles or more, three miles or more We followed the wren three miles or more at six o'clock in the morning I have a little box under me arm under me arm, under me arm I have a little box under me arm a penny or tuppence'll do it no harm Mrs. OGill is a very good woman a very good woman, a very good woman Mrs. OGill is a very good woman she gave us a penny to bury the wren
