The Ballymurray Werewolf’s © 4041218
Tony Fallon
Don’t shout in the forest the werewolves
are asleep
Don’t shout on the farm you’ll wake the
sheep
I have never seen a werewolf I’ve been
out ‘til dawn
But I know very well I should not upset
Farmer John
He is a sight as he rides around on the
old piebald
Making sure that his flock will never
get mauled
He roams his fields at night with a
double barrel gun
And any night he is tired he sends out
his eldest son
They know the werewolves have a taste
for Irish lamb
They can’t depend at all on the fourteen
year old ram
John’s farm is next to the forest of
mighty trees of ash
And he believes they could be on his
sheep in a flash
As I said I never saw one but I think I
heard them howl
I did hear some noise one night but
maybe it was an owl
People tell John they are not evil just
dogs gone wild
Others say they’re old Irish who by
Cromwell were exiled
Still others say they are travelers who
like mutton stew
In the daytime you’ll see tracks of
fires if you pass through
No matter what’s inside the forest all
will have to agree
Every year John loses a lamb sometimes
two or three
There is no one would go in at night for
a million pound
All the neighbors think inside there is
only evil ground
