My Mom was #frenchcanadian #metis, but loved all things #irish. She played #clancybrothers all the time, especially the really political stuff.
Apparently, in Kindergarten, we were learning "The Ants Go Marching" and I informed the teacher that the lyrics were wrong.
I gave forth with this:
"With your guns and drums and drums and guns, hurroo, hurroo...
The enemy nearly slew ye
Oh my darling dear, Ye look so queer
Johnny I hardly knew ye."
