It was down in Ballinabranna that we all worked hard all day, We were getting out potatoes and drinking mugs of ‘tay’. In the evening I cam home full of muck and clay, Says the wife’ Now go and get a drink, it’s been a long hard day’. So down to the grove I did go as happy as could be. I met an old acquaintance, ‘twas Billy Motley. Says Motley ‘have you got the car?’ I had sure as a rule. So we sailed away to Crettyard and on to the Salmon Pool. Now we stayed there for quite a while then we drive on to Cainesbridge; We drank away ‘til closing time then headed for the ridge. Coming down along the hill a light shone in the sky, It was from a white Granada and it pulled up closely by. Now I opened up the fly window and the guard put in his nose. He says ‘You have drink taken, too much I suppose’. He handed me a plastic bag, the smallest ever seen. He says ‘Now blow in that until you turn it green’. As you know I turned it green, he says ‘now step out, please, You must leave your friend behind and please give me the keys’. Says Motley ‘Don’t you worry Mick, everything will be alright’. So they took me to Kilkenny as the stars were shining bright. The doctor he was waiting and he read for me the rules. He says ‘You can give me blood, or urine if you choose’. So he handed me a bottle and I filled it to the top And he put my name upon the cap in case it would get lost. It was in Castlecomer court my license I did lose. I got 12 month’s suspension for drinking too much booze. Now I have my license back the truth I’ll tell to you: Whenever you go drinking boys, remember TWO WILL DO!

Title A name given to the resource My Ballinabranna Home Author : Seamus Dunne Singer: Seamus Dunne Subject The topic of the resource A song in praise of Ballinabranna, place and people Theme: Pride in Place Description An account of the resource You may sing about Killarney and the homes of Donegal But one place is so dear to me, it’s the very best of all. The place that I return to no matter where I roam, It’s that little spot in Carlow, It’s my Ballinabranna Home. When young I often walked by the Barrow down below And gazed upon the barges and wondered where they’d go. We used to swim there by the weir and frolicked in the foam; ‘Twas scarcely half-a-mile away from my Ballinabranna Home. I remember too the fields around where we hurled and played football. Jack Dunne, John Brien and Billy Dobbs, those great men I recall. It’s thanks to them and many more and the foresight they had shown That we have a pitch and clubhouse in my Ballinabranna Home. I remember too the little schools by the churchgate, one each side, For the teaching of John Conwill they were known both far and wide. John tyndall, a great scientist, and the famous Cardinal moran Were two of the great scholars from my Ballinabranna Home. The old girls school became the hall where we danced on Friday night When the local basnd they took the stage they filled us with delight. Some of those musicians to their eternal rest have gone But Ber Landy is still playing around my Ballinabranna Home. It was in that hall we saw the plays produced by Master Doyle; The casts they put on a great show after many weeks of toil. ‘Sharon’s Grave’ and ‘Sive’ were some of the plays well known That we were entertained with in my Ballinabranna Home. And the people of the village, I’ve left them until last, They all helped one another in the hard times that are past. They shared the little that they had, spuds and veg they had grown. Ah, the neighbours they were great back then in my Ballinabranna Home. The chapel of St. Fintan’s with its graveyard closely by, Where my parents and relations in peaceful slumber lie. It’s where I hope my bones will rest there in that sacred loam And forever be contented in my Ballinabranna Home.
