Kevin Barry - Hank Locklin[00:00:00]

In Mountjoy jail one Monday morning[00:00:10]

High upon the gallows tree[00:00:14]

Kevin Barry gave his young life[00:00:20]

In the cause of liberty[00:00:24]

Just a lad of eighteen summers[00:00:29]

Yet no one can deny[00:00:34]

As he walked to death that morning[00:00:38]

Proudly held his head up high[00:00:43]

Proudly held his head up high[00:00:48]

Just before he faced the hangman[00:00:53]

In his dreary prison cell[00:00:57]

French soldiers tortured Barry[00:01:02]

Just because he would not tell[00:01:07]

The name of his brave companions[00:01:11]

And things they wished to know[00:01:16]

An informer or we'll kill you[00:01:21]

Kevin Barry answered no[00:01:26]

Kevin Barry answered no[00:01:31]

Calmly standing to attention[00:01:35]

While he bade his last farewell[00:01:40]

To his broken hearted mother[00:01:44]

Whose grief no one can tell[00:01:49]

For the cause he proudly cherished[00:01:54]

This sad parting had to be[00:01:59]

Then to death he walked softly smiling[00:02:03]

That old Ireland might be free[00:02:08]

Then to death he walked softly smiling[00:02:13]

That old Ireland might be free[00:02:17]
