The Irish tune is by Jimmy McCarthy - a fine contemporary songwriter - titled "As I Leave Behind Neidin". A truly beautiful song. And some appropriate lyrics for Father's Day: My Old Man I miss my old man tonite and I wish he was here with me With his corny jokes and his cheap cigars He could look you in the eye and sell you a car. That's not an easy thing to do, but no one ever knew a more charming creature on this earth than my old man. He was a pilot in the big war in the U.S. Army Air Corps in a C - 47 with a heavy load full of combat cargo for the Burma Road. And after they dropped the bomb he came home and married Mom and not long after that he was my old man. And oh the fights we had when my brother and I got him mad; He'd get all boiled up and he'd start to shout and I knew what was coming so I tuned him out. And now the old man's gone, and I'd give all I own to hear what he said when I wasn't listening to my old man' I miss my old man tonite and I can almost see his face He was always trying to watch his weight and his heart only made it to fifty-eight. For the first time since he died late last night I cried. I wondered when I was gonna do that for my old man.
