LYON'S FAVOURITE. AKA and see "Maurice Carmody's Favourite," "Morrison's Jig (1)," "Paddy Stack's Fancy Jig," "Stick Across the Hob (The)." Irish, Jig. E Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABC. The tune is almost universally known among Irish musicians as "Morrison's" or "Morrison's Jig", and is frequently played at sessions.

Source for notated version: Kerry fiddler Padraig O'Keeffe via accordion player Johnny O'Leary (Sliabh Luachra region of the Cork-Kerry border) [Moylan].
