It does not have Louth in the Lyrics. People down the country would not know were Carlingford was.

The turfman from Ardee,
farewell to carlingford.

I know both of these.. farewell to Carlingford is actually a very good song in its own right.

Replying To Pinkie:  "Couldnt find the original "GAA songs" thread (maybe administrator will help me and add to original thread if he can find it, not in the first 20 pages) but someone mentioned "Cuchulainn's son" as a great GAA song but couldnt find it anywhere (think it was bennybunny or culchie or one of the Cork lads) . The song is written/sang generally by a late Wexford man named Martin Codd about Nicky Rackard. Having grown up on stories of the Rackards and Quigleys, it is a great song. Personally I think Martin Codd does a better version of it but a great version all the same (move video on 1 minute to ignore the first minute of talking!) and I couldnt find his original. Enjoy.
