I wonder if I might refer you the the entry by W.B.Yeats, in the chapter of quotations, in the excellent book "Last Night's Fun" ? Not everyone likes Donnybrook Fair.

Ronnie Drew made a great ballad out of that tune:

"...I lifted her petticoat aisy and slow and I tied up me sleeve for to buckle her shoe..."
