lirik lagu the johnstons - the coleraine regatta
good folks i’ll tell you true, now my song commences
in the year of ’72, one day of my adventures
the ‘derry standard’ [newspaper] came to us; it bore the special motto
that on july the 31rst, comes off coleraine regatta
chorus:
whack fal ol di da, whack fal ol di daddy;
whack fal ol di da
right toorin intan addy
the morning being fine as i prepared for starting
i was led along the line by a man whose name was martin;
in coming to the junction i heard two engines whistle
the points were drawn together by a man called frank mccrystall
the ladies shook their dress, and stood there with compunction
until the guard expressed ~ ‘take seats at newtown junction,’
when i obtained my seat, my fiddle began a~playing;
the engine she did beat, and the people fell hurra~ing
many a rosy cheek was there, and many an ugly bundle;
and many a lass received a smack as the train wnt through the tunnel
one of the bandboys sat by us, i heard his name called lowry
the fifes and drums struck up a tune which we called kate fa gowrie
