The Stone Outside Dan Murphy's Door, Episode 188

An 1880 Irish ballad written by Johnny Dane. It recounts Innocent days gone by when local Hibernians gathered in front of Dan Murphy's Shop. They would sing to Murphys fiddle music. The location was maybe Ennis or Fermanagh or County Kerry.

There is also a short history of the royal Murphy family.
