    I heard a fella singing this on Sunday in Comhaltas in Monkstown and can't find the lyrics anywhere - called "The second hand trousers I bought in Belcoo" it's a short funny song - any ideas where I might pick up the lyrics pls? Thanks.

    I thought it would be easy enough got but some googling proved useless. You'll probably have to get them from listening to the song. I'd be familiar with Seamus Moore singing this song if your having trouble getting the song on CD you should be able to get his version fairly easy

    The song is on Hidden Fermanagh (2 CDs & a book). The book seems to be hard to come by now & some fekir on Amazon is flogging a 2nd hand copy for £120!

    I have a copy of the book somewhere & will send you the lyrics if you don't already have them.

    The song was written by Sandy McConnell, Cathal & Micky's father.
