Kelly The Boy From Killanne - The Clancy Brothers[00:00:00]

What's the news[00:00:04]

What's the news Oh my bold Shelmalier[00:00:05]

With your long-barrelled gun of the sea[00:00:09]

Say what wind from the sun blows his messenger here[00:00:13]

With a hymn of the dawn for the free[00:00:17]

Goodly news goodly news do I bring youth of Forth[00:00:22]

Goodly news do I bring Bargy man[00:00:26]

For the boys march at dawn from the south to the north[00:00:30]

Led by Kelly the boy from Killanne[00:00:34]

Tell me who is the giant with the gold curling hair[00:00:38]

He who rides at the head of the band[00:00:42]

Seven feet is his height with some inches to spare[00:00:47]

And he looks like a king in command[00:00:51]

Oh me boys that's the pride of the bold Shelmaliers[00:00:55]

Mongst our greatest of heroes a man[00:00:59]

Fling your beavers aloft and give three rousing cheers[00:01:03]

For John Kelly the boy from Killanne[00:01:08]

Enniscorthy's in flames and old Wexford is won[00:01:12]

And the Barrow tomorrow we cross[00:01:16]

On a hill other the town we have planted a gun[00:01:20]

That will batter the gateways to Ross[00:01:25]

All the Forth men and Bargy men march over the heath[00:01:29]

With brave Harvey to lead on the van[00:01:33]

But the foremost of all in that grim gap of death[00:01:37]

Will be Kelly the boy from Killanne [00:01:41]

But the gold sun of freedom grew darkened at Ross[00:01:46]

And it set by the Slaney's red waves[00:01:53]

And poor Wexford stript naked hung high on a cross[00:01:59]

With her heart pierced by traitors and slaves[00:02:05]

Glory O Glory O to her brave sons who died[00:02:11]

For the cause of long-down-trodden man[00:02:17]

Glory O to mount Leinster's own darling and pride[00:02:21]

Dauntless Kelly the boy from Killanne[00:02:26]
