OLD LEATHER BREECHES [1] (An Sean Briste Leatair). Irish, Air (6/8 time, "spirited"). C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. O'Neill's tune is probably one of many 6/8 melodies for a 19th century comic Irish song. See note for "annotation:Paddy Heagerty's Leather Breeches" for more. The melody is similar to, and perhaps derived from, the English "Swaggering Boney." Paul de Grae notes that Colm Ó Lochlainn (1892-1972) has a song by the title "Old Leather Breeches" in his Irish Street Ballads (1939), although that song is set to the tune "Nell Flaherty's Drake."
