How can there be a cherry that has no stone? How can there be a chicken that has no bone? How can there be a story that has no end?

DANNY BOY Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen and down the mountain side The summer's gone and all the roses falling, Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must 'bide.
