Sing A Long To An Irish Jig

We're jottin' down our poems, me boys 
We're jottin' down our poem
From old Bombay to Galway Bay
We're jottin' down our poems
All wannabe Byrons just step aside
We're the best bards on land and foam, Aye!
We're jottin' dowm our poems, me boys
We're jottin' down our poems

This would make a good marching song I think. The picture cracks me up!! My daughter lives in Boston and watches the March 17 parade from her window. I have a sister named Erin Colleen, a brother Sean Patrick and people call me Marikate. I shall follow your suggestion, and jottin down some Irish words developing a tune that sounds nice with you poem's lines, but can I have the dog as I compose?

Thank you, Marikate. You may have the dog after he finishes his twelve step program!
