Sean South Of Garryowen - The Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]
It was on a dreary new years day[00:00:58]
When the shade of night came down[00:01:02]
And a lorry load of volunteers[00:01:06]
Approached the border town[00:01:09]
There were men from dublin and from cork [00:01:13]
Fermanagh and tyrone[00:01:17]
But the leader was a limerick man sean south of garryowen[00:01:20]
And as they moved along the street[00:01:31]
Up to the barracks door[00:01:34]
They scorned the danger they might[00:01:38]
Meet the fate that lay in store[00:01:41]
They were fighting for old ireland to make their very own[00:01:46]
And the foremost of this gallant band[00:01:53]
Was south of garryowen[00:01:57]
But the seargant spoiled their daring[00:02:09]
Plans he spied them through the door[00:02:12]
And with sten guns and the rifles a[00:02:16]
Hail of death did pour[00:02:20]
And when that awful night was past[00:02:24]
Two men lay cold as stone[00:02:28]
There was one from near the border[00:02:32]
And one from garryowen[00:02:35]
No more he'll hear the seagull[00:02:39]
Cry o'er the murmuring shannon tide[00:02:43]
For he fell beneath a northern[00:02:47]
Sky brave o'hanlon by his side[00:02:50]
He has gone to join that gallant[00:02:54]
Band of plunkett pearse and tone[00:02:58]
Another martyr for old ireland sean[00:03:02]
South from garryowen[00:03:06]
