Sean South/ Broad Black Brimmer - The Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]

Sad are the homes round Garryowen[00:00:13]

Since they lost their joy and pride[00:00:17]

And the banshee cry links every vale[00:00:21]

Around the Shannon side[00:00:25]

That city of the ancient walls[00:00:28]

The broken treaty stone [00:00:30]

Undying fame surrounds your name [00:00:33]

Sean South from Garryowen[00:00:36]

T'was on a dreary New Years Eve[00:00:41]

As the shades of night came down[00:00:45]

A lorry load of volunteers approached the border town[00:00:49]

There were men from Dublin and from Cork [00:00:57]

Fermanagh and Tyrone[00:01:01]

And the leader was a Limerick man[00:01:04]

Sean South from Garryowen[00:01:08]

As they moved along the street up to the barracks door[00:01:14]

They scorned the danger they might face[00:01:22]

Their fate that lay instore[00:01:26]

They were fighting for old Ireland to claim their very own[00:01:29]

And the foremost of that gallant band[00:01:37]

Was South from Garryowen[00:01:41]

But the seargent spied their daring plan[00:01:52]

He spied them trough the door[00:01:56]

The Sten guns and the rifles a hail of death did pour[00:02:00]

And when that awful night was passed[00:02:08]

Two men lay cold a stone[00:02:11]

There was one from near the border[00:02:15]

And one from Garryowen[00:02:19]

No more he will hear the seagull's cry[00:02:23]

Over the murmurring Shannon tide[00:02:27]

For he fell beneath a Northern sky[00:02:30]

Brave Hanlon by his side[00:02:35]

They have gone to join that gallant band[00:02:38]

Of Plunkett Pearse and Tone[00:02:42]

A martyr for old Ireland[00:02:46]

Was South from Garryowen[00:02:50]
