The Pride Of Carrigadrohid

The Pride of Carrigadrohid where might she be today Did she marry and raise children or stay single and in Carrigadrohid did she stay Or did she leave the Leeside country for places far away? I recall i last saw her on an evening in May At the Cork Greyhound Track cheering her dog on in a race As near to the finish line he raced into first place Celebrating her dog's race win her friends her did embrace Her wavy brown hair blowing in the wind a smile of delight on her face But on going back the Seasons this now seems long ago And time as we know becomes everyone's foe The Pride of Carrigadrohid in her prime lovely to behold Though doubtless time would have left her looking old Her best years in life in the forever gone And the clocks on all of our lives do keep ticking on.
