Croppy Boy - The Dubliners[00:00:00]

It was early early all in the Spring[00:00:15]

When the birds did whistle and sweetly sing[00:00:21]

Changing their notes all from tree to tree[00:00:27]

And the song they sang was Old Ireland free[00:00:32]

Oh as I went walkin' up Wexford street[00:00:39]

Oh me own first cousin I changed to meet[00:00:45]

Well me own first cousin did me betray[00:00:50]

And for one bare guinnea sold me life away[00:00:56]

It was early early all in the night[00:01:02]

When the yeoman cavalry gave me a fright[00:01:08]

Well the yeoman cavalry was my downfall[00:01:13]

And taken was I by Lord Cornwall[00:01:19]

And as I went walking up Wexford Hill[00:01:25]

Now who could blame me to cry me fill[00:01:31]

I looked behind and I looked before[00:01:36]

And my aged mother I'll see no more[00:01:41]

And when I stood on the scaffold high[00:01:48]

My own dear father was standing by[00:01:53]

Well me own dear father did me deny[00:01:58]

And the name he gave me was the croppy boy[00:02:04]

In Dungannon town now this boy died[00:02:10]

In Dungannon town does his body lie[00:02:15]

So all you strangers that do pass by[00:02:21]

That's go shed a tear for the croppy boy[00:02:27]
