Tis pretty to be in Ballinderry pretty to be in Aughalee 'Tis prettier to be on bonny Ram's Island A-sittin' forever beneath a tree O chone... For often I sailed to bonny Ram's Island Arm in arm with Phelim my demon And he would whistle and I would sing And we would make the whole island ring O chone... "I'm goin'," he said "from bonny Ram's Island Out and across the deep blue sea And if in your heart you love me Mary Open your arms at last to me" O chone... 'Twas pretty to be in Ballinderry Now it's sad as sad can be For the ship that sailed with Phelim my demon Is lost forever beneath the sea O chone....
