Smuggling the Tin, is a song from Liam Weldons 1976 album ‘Dark Horse on the Wind’.
Liam would have collected this song from some of the traveling community in the 60s or 70s, he was known to have a great interest in the songs of the Irish travellers and some of his best songs are written about the lives and struggles of the travelling people.
Smuggling the Tin is about a few gypsy boys smugglin’ tin across the border from northern Ireland into the South, the smugglers in question were nearly caught by an auld copper but fortunately they managed to get away.
the original way Liam Weldon plays on the album is just his voice and a bodhran and it has a great feel to it, link below;

lyrics bellow:
Smuggling The Tin
Young Cooney and Colley
And ould Martin Quinn
Well they made up together
To smuggle the tin
With me right toorin-arinan
Right toorin-arinan
Right toorin-anay
They walked all the day boys
Till the heels they grew raw
Well they hadn't the comfort
Of lying in the straw
With me right toorin-arinan
Right toorin-arinan
Right toorin-anay
I'll yoke her says Colley
I'm wise to her tricks
But the more that he yoked her
The more the mare kicked
The hills they are high boys
Th' oul' mare she is thin
And my hеart lies a-trembling
For fear shе'll give in
I once had a piebald
All covered in dots
And it's many's the fiver
She's won in the trots
Up came th' oul' sergeant
With a laugh and a grin
I'll have ye inside boys
For the smuggling of tin
Up came th' oul' sergeant
With a laugh and a smile
I'll have ye inside boys
For smuggling a while
Young Cooney stood up boys
To make the excuse
If you leave us all go sir
It's home we will scoot
We crossed back the border
We blessed our ould face
To hell with the black North
We're in the Free-State
With me right toorin-arinan
Right toorin-arinan
Right toorin-anay
