COME ALONG WITH ME [1] (Tar Liomsa). Irish, Air (2/4 time, "with force"). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. A version of the English air "All 'Round My Hat (1)." This is the air of the 19th-century English song, "All Around My Hat", a Cockney parody that proved very popular from the 1820s onward and spawned many versions; the one popular in Ireland, where the hat is adorned with a tri-coloured ribbon, is a later adaptation by Peadar Kearney, referring to the Easter Rising of 1916. The air may be English, and is also called The Budgeon is a Fine Trade (e.g., in Chappell's "Popular Music of the Olden Time").

Source for notated version: Chicago fiddler and police sergeant James O'Neill, originally from County Down. O'Neill collaborated with Francis O'Neill (no relation) to produce "Music in Ireland."

Printed source: O'Neill (Music of Ireland: 1850 Melodies), 1903; No. 343, p. 59.
