Young Roddy McCorley |
See the host of fleet foot men |
Who sped with faces wan |
From farmstedt and from fishers cot |
Along the banks of Bann |
They come with vengeance in their eyes |
Too late, too late are they |
For young Roddy McCorley goes to die |
On the bridge of Toome today |
Up the narrow streets he steps |
Smiling proud and young |
About the hemp rope on his neck |
The golden ringlets clung |
There was never a tear in his blue eyes |
Both sad and bright are they |
For young Roddy McCorley goes to die |
On the bridge of Toome today |
When the last stepped up the street |
His shining pike in hand |
Behind him marched in grim array |
A stalwart earnest band |
For Antrim town, for Antrim town |
He led them to the fray |
And young Roddy McCorley goes to die |
On the bridge of Toome today |
There’s never a one of all your dead |
More bravely died in fray |
Than he who marches to his fate |
On the bridge Toome today |
True to the last! |
True to the last |
He treads the upwards way |
And young Roddy McCorley goes to die |
On the bridge of Toome today |
