Giants Causeway Limerick



Here we are in Giant's Causeway
Where 40,000 columns of basalt rock stand today




The volcano erupted
The larva cooled
But before there was science
There was the Legend of Finn McCool








It is called the Giant's Causeway
It was made by Finn McCool
It's really just the start of a stepping stone tool
To get across to Scotland
To fight with Bennadonner
Through many disagreeements
They pulled each other asunder 
























He took to Cloddin' muck
And try and try as he may
He never his his target
But he made us our Lough Neagh
The mud landed in the water
And with all the might he can
He only then succeeded
In making the Isle of Man




 































 


So he took to playing the organ
And over here are his pipes
He played the Sash,  Derry's Walls and Billyboys
And started loads of fights


Cause the Scottish giant thought that this were his tunes


Little did he know that the music for Highland Bagpipes
Would come from across there near Dungloe
