.. heard Pecker some 30 years ago on tape, along with Paddy Reilly and whatnot...met a woman and she was a nutjob, so I ran for a place I yearned for since seeing and hearing about it... . Still here, gonna die here, listening to those old men, and it will be time well spent.
am from india never travelled but i love Pecker Dunne and the music and most of this type of music, after a days hard work i would love to sit and listen to songs like this or whiskey in the jar or last of the travelling people with a glass of whiskey!!!
@@mcmc5373 you do realise you can be from Ireland and have other types of ancestors from other places as well? This land has been populated by Beaker people, Celts, Vikings, Normans, Anglos, Spaniards and Roma often intermarry wit travellers.... do some reading pal
Never forgot the day I saw him in Ballybunion in 1969.....I was in awe....he was dressed in full regalia with gold earrings. Never forgot that day. God be good to him.
respected the travellers community's and there traditionally ways back in the day rip gbnf too lost loved most recently passed away beloved ones and right back threw the days and know and then
Some years ago I was in a dutch lady's house, with a lady friend of mine, between Skibbereen and Baltimore. Pecker was there peppering his talking with f'ing and blinding. He suddenly realized he was in the company of some women and said " I'm sorry for me feckin language". I heard him in a pub in Leap another time a great singer and character. Thanks for the post.
This beautiful song always touch my heart. Were part of a dieing culture im sad to say there was a time when we had good morals and the youngones was thought to be respectable and dress right and the youngfellas knew it was only country people that took drugs and they wer to smart to do that. My lord how times have changed.

I was honoured to know the "bould" Pecker when he lived in West Cork...aint seen him in long time...hope he is still in good health...a unique and great gentleman both in name & fact!

IRISH FOLK SONGS
Wexford Town lyrics and chords
Written and recorded by ''The Pecker Dunne'', to change key, C=D, F=G, Am=Bm, the air of this song is the same as ''Tramps And Hawkers'' and same as ''Come My Little Son' and ''The Song With No Name''. An Irish folk song.
My[C] family lived in [F]Wexford town, stopped travelling and [C]settled down,
Though[C] my father kept a[F] horse and car, we [C]lived within the [Am]town,
The [C]people there mis[F]understood, or [C]they did not know our [Am]ways,
So with[C] horse and car, back [F]on the road, I began my travelling [C]days
My father was called the Fiddler Dunne, and I'm a fiddler too,
But although I often felt his fist, he taught me all he knew,
I know I'll never be as good, and yet I feel no shame,
For the other things my father taught, I am proud to bear his name.
He taught me pride and how to live, though the road is hard and long,
And how a man will never starve, with a banjo, fiddle or song,
And how to fight for what I own, and what I know is right,
And how to camp beside a ditch on a stormy winter's night.
O times were good and times were bad, and people cruel and kind,
But what I learned of people then, has stayed within my mind,
I'll honour friends with all my heart, do for them all I can,
But I've learnt to go the road again, when they spurn the tinker man.
O Wexford is a town I like, but the travelling man they scorn,
And a man must feel affection for the town where he was born,
I know one day, that I'll go back, when my travelling days are done,
And people will begin to wonder, what has happened to the Pecker Dunne
