FOGGY DEW [3], THE. Irish, Air (4/4 time). G Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. A minor key rendition of the famous song air. Joyce learned this air as a child in Limerick, c. 1840's. He begs comparison with the melody "Air thaobh na carraige baine" in Petrie's Ancient Music of Ireland (p. 143). He prints the following lyrics, typical of many versions of the song:
When I was a bachelor airy and young,
I followed the bachelor's trade,
And all the harm that ever I done
Was courting a pretty maid.
I courted her for the long summer season,
And part of the winter too,
Till at length we were married--myself and my darling,
All over the foggy dew.
See also the close tune variant "Poor Old Granua Weal," collected by George Petrie.
