- This is an American song which dates back to the 1800’s. The tune is older while lyricist is unknown but the lyrics can be linked to the American civil war. It tells the story of a man seeking shelter and falling in love with the woman who helps him. It is believed the lyrics are written around the time of the American civil war. There are references to foreign money being no good, which is believed to be confederate money. The song is performed most notably by Paul Brady and Andy Irvine. Not an Irish ballads but a beautiful ballad all the same. One of my all times favourite songs! Really enjoyed recording this one!

Amazing Dan, literally unbelievable. I wish me Da was here to experience this, I'm living in the UK now and Everytime I hear any of your songs, it brings a tear to my eye. And I can relate to nearly all of them in some way. I'd say Fred o,Brian and Kevin McCarthy are smiling away up there.
Beautiful!! I own a home in Slidell, Louisiana. I know Lake Pontchartrain very well. My late husband and I fished it often.
Its a beautiful song, I hope you have many happy memories fishing with your beloved husband. May he rest in peace and may you live on in peace.
Again, brilliant job! It's a shame I can only hit the "Thumbs-Up" once. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent.
Cheers!
Once again you have outdone yourself Dan Incredible. Another one to add to the Dan McCabe Playlist 👍❤🇮🇪

I have loved the Paul Brady version for many years, especially the 1999 re-recorded version. You can't match Paul's peerless guitar playing (who could?), but you have a very special voice and I look forward to hearing more of your work. Lovely stuff.

Amazing beautiful song and voice
Can’t wait until the duet with the one and only Christy Moore👍
Very nice rendition of this deep heart wrenching song which I enjoyed very much indeed. Your right up there with Paul Brady and I'd like to hear your youthful voice alongside Paul's guitar work ( no disrespect and I know you will understand what I am saying) Have fun my friend and I hope you are appreciated and listened to when performing (that's surely all an an artist can wish for) Thanks and regards.
