KITTY OF COLERAINE

As beautiful Kitty one morning was tripping,

With a pitcher of milk from the fair of Coleraine,

When she saw me she stumbled, the pitcher down tumbled,

And all the sweet buttermilk watered the plain.

“Oh, what shall I do now? ’twas looking at you, now!

Sure, sure, such a pitcher I’ll ne’er meet again;

’Twas the pride of my dairy! O Barney M’Cleary,

You’re sent as a plague to the girls of Coleraine!”
