Tim Martin O'Leary - The Town That Never Reared A Fool

We played down by the castle, we went swimming in the streams
We played our game of football, we had our childhood dreams
We lived right there in the town, we were all so close to school
We were in the heart of Munster, in a town they call Macroom
Oh, Macroom, our lovely haven, we really had it all
Everyone was happy there, the long, the short the tall
A town so nice and beautiful, it really was a jewel
It's a place called home, and will always be known as the town that never reared a fool
The castle in our town was once owned by Olive White
Who married Arthur Guinness, and gave us all that appetite
I wasn't far from the old square, I had a neighbour called Fionn Mac Cumhail
We were in the heart of Munster, in a town they call Macroom
Oh, Macroom, our lovely haven, we really had it all
Everyone was happy there, the long, the short the tall
A town so nice and beautiful, it really was a jewel
It's a place called home, and will always be known as the town that never reared a fool
I'm married now with children, I've a small place of my own
A mile outside my birthplace, a place that I call home
I'll never leave this lovely spot, I'll keep my golden rule
Living in the heart of Munster, in a town they call Macroom
Oh, Macroom, our lovely haven, we really had it all
Everyone was happy there, the long, the short the tall
A town so nice and beautiful, it really was a jewel
It's a place called home, it will always be known as the town that never reared a fool
Oh, Macroom, our lovely haven, we really had it all
Everyone was happy there, the long, the short the tall
A town so nice and beautiful, it really was a jewel
It's a place called home, and will always be known as the town that never reared a fool
It's a place called home, it will always be known, as the town that never reared a fool
It's a place called home, and will always be known as the town that never reared a fool
