Story behind the song
it's haunted me ever since i first heard it, so now i'm singing it.
Lyrics
'tis pretty to be in balinderry 'tis pretty to be in argolee 'tis pretty to be in little ram's island sitting under and ivy tree ochone ochone ochone ochone oh that i was in little ram's island oh that i was with felimy hyland he would whistle and i would sing until we made the whole island ring ochone ochone ochone ochone 'tis pretty to be in balinderry but i am as sad as sad can be for the ship that was carrying felimy hyland is sunk forever beneath the sea. ochone ochone ochone ochone
