In Bambridge town in the County Down
On a beautiful day in July
Down from a boreen green came a sweet colleen
And she smiled as she passed me right by
Passed me right by
No pipe I’ll smoke and no horse I’ll yoke
Till my plough turns a rust colored brown
And till my smiling bride by my fireside
The most beautiful gem in the crown
Of County Down
A harsh punk sound with an extended retro fusion instrumental solo and a synthetic vocal.
I originally uploaded this with dumb lyrics and a dumb title (“Norwegian Weed”) but have decided to present it as a respectful treatment of the traditional Irish song, albeit in highly abbreviated form.
*** Song Memo ***
I cloned the BIAB fiddle to a synth for that Mahavishnu Orchestra effect, then added the other-than-human singer from Emvoice.
