This is really vague and a long shot, but I just had a memory of a song I used to know. The only lyric I can remember is something about going "down into Carlisle" or something like that, in fact the only part I'm sure of is "Carlisle". I think it might of been something like "We went into carlisle and (other place name)"
The song is sung by a man, it sounds like it might be an old irish folk song but its not super obvious that this is the case. It could also be a more modern song written in the style of an old folk song. I am pretty sure none of the words are obviously gaelic/archaic. Its in the minor key.
Ive tried googling lyrics but its hard to even pull up a lyric with Carlisle in it, seems its a common last night for musicians.
I'm pretty sure it is NOT Bonnie Prince Billy, but it kind of sounds like him. The voice is different though, its not him.
Anyone?

Good thing you found it before you got pounded by a bunch of Deadheads:
Shadows of a sailor, forming winds both foul and fair all swarm.
Down in Carlisle, he loved a lady many years ago.
