Engelskt namn för den traditionella Irländska rätten cál ceannan( vilket betyder "vitt huvud"). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colcannon
Well did you ever make colcannon,
made with lovely pickled cream?
With the greens & scallions mingled
like a pitcher in a dream.
Did you ever make a hole on top
to hold the meltin' flake,
or the creamy flavoured butter
that our mothers used to make?
Chorus
Oh you did, so you did
so did he and so did I,
and the more I think about it
sure the nearer I'm to cry.
Oh weren't them the happy days
When troubles we knew not?
When our mothers made colcannon
in the little skillet pot.
