Subscribe now ! This song is about a Poitín(Moonshine) still and the money the owner makes from it, the horn being the worm (the copper piping where the Poitín mixture condenses. It is usually or often a spiral, so maybe curved like a ram's horn). If so, since the Poitín still with its “one long horn“ was illegal in Ireland, it couldn't be sung about openly. It fed him well and put a clothes on his back. So was as good as a cow or sheep in providing.
