Almost 40 years ago, Mickey MacConnell, a young man from Fermanagh penned a song that still today is standing the test of time and proves to be an Irish favourite. It took Patsy a few years more than he had planned, but for HEARTS ON FIRE, he recorded it: Only Our Rivers Run Free. Today we offer you the lyrics including our usual notes. Naturally, we asked the composer what he thought of it and Mickey replied:

I'm delighted that Patsy has included my song on his new CD!

Don't forget that Patsy will open the Spawell (see July 19 news) on August 1, this Sunday!
Only Our Rivers Run Free
