Happy St. Stephens Day! The wren, the wren, the king of all birds, St. Stephens Day was caught in the furze, Although he was little his honour was great, Jump up me lads and give us a treat. As I was going to Killenaule, I met a wren upon the wall. Up with me wattle and knocked him down, And brought him in to Carrick Town. Drooolin, Droolin, wheres your nest? Tis in the bush that I love best In the tree, the holly tree, Where all the boys do follow me. Up with the kettle and down with the pan, And give us a penny to bury the wren. I followed the wren three miles or more, Three miles or more three miles or more. I followed the wren three miles or more, At six oclock 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 would do it no harm. Mrs. Clancys a very good woman, a very good woman, a very good woman, Mrs. Clancys a very good woman, She give us a penny to bury the wren.
