Box Man

This is a tune from Liz Carroll's CD 'In Play'. It is the second of a set of jigs. Oh and did I mention that John Doyle plays on that CD. :)

Perhaps I should have mentioned that the first part is long and is repeated. The second part is half as long with a different ending second time around, so I have written it out in full and as such it is not repeated.
Then again you can play it as you wish.
