This scene is towards the end of the Chicken Dinner Party that begins with Pig Finn and an older gentleman singing a song a capela right before it cuts to Jackie and Michael drunk at the table in the kitchen. I'm trying to find out the name of this little folk song. Anyone know? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's actually the Mountains of Mourne, a beautiful song.
There have been a few versions, both by traditional Irish singers, and pop singers, like Don McLean...my current favorite rendition, though, is the one by Celtic Thunder.

...and composed in 1896 by (William) Percy French (1 May 1854 – 24 January 1920).
