Vandalism?[edit]

I come from county Kerry
The land of eggs and bacon
And if you think I'll eat your fish 'n' chips
Oh dear then [or "By Jaysus"] you're mistaken.

I don't actually think these lines are part of the song so I deleted them.Cliste (talk) 20:07, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

By Jaysus, you were mistaken. They are the end of the spoken intro. See Mudcat, Free Lyrics, etc. — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 18:12, 17 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

By Jaysus ... etc. I believe these are part of the original lyrics. I would appreciate help with research into this song. Roger Bourke (Carlofantom). Carlofantom (talk) 09:11, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any particular reason why the ballad is not reproduced in the article? KJP1 (talk) 18:06, 10 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate that it's some considerable time since this question was asked, but the reasons are summarised in the WP:NOTLYRICS, WP:NOFULLTEXT and WP:COPYVIO guidelines. Guliolopez (talk) 01:25, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
