about

Gavin was still a young man when he bought a battered old paperback copy of Irish Street Ballads by Colm O’Lochlainn and found this song about a doomed romance in a smelly old tanyard.

It’s been a favourite ever since. Years ago, Florida’s Charlie Handley sang it beautifully with Gavin’s Stratocaster, and now Julie sings it with Gav’s small-bodied acoustic guitar.
