The song "Danny Farrell" by Pete St John, recorded by The Dubliners, tells the story of a traveller, or Irish "tinker", named Danny Farrell, whose life has been marked by hardship, from a difficult childhood to his adult years as a "loser," a "boozer," and a social outcast. The lyrics depict his descent into alcoholism and poverty, his inability to find work in a changing world, and a feeling of disillusionment and loneliness.
