时长： 02:40

The Croppy Box - The Clancy Brothers[00:00:00]

It was early early all in the spring[00:00:11]

The birds did whistle and sweetly sing[00:00:17]

Changing their notes from tree to tree[00:00:22]

And the song they sang was old Ireland free[00:00:27]

It was early early all in the night[00:00:33]

The yeoman cavalry gave me a fright[00:00:38]

The yeoman cavalry was my downfall[00:00:42]

And taken was I by Lord Cornwall[00:00:47]

As I was walking up Wexford Hill[00:00:54]

Ohh who could blame me to cry my fill[00:00:59]

I looked behind and I looked before[00:01:04]

But my aged mother I shall see no more[00:01:09]

As I was walking up Wexford Street[00:01:18]

My own first cousin I chanced to meet[00:01:22]

My own first cousin did me betray[00:01:28]

And for one bare guinea swore my life away[00:01:33]

As I was mounted on the platform high[00:01:41]

My aged father was standing by[00:01:46]

My aged father did me deny[00:01:52]

And the name he gave me was the croppy boy[00:01:57]

It was in Dungannon this young man died[00:02:05]

And in Dungannon his body lies[00:02:11]

So are good people who do pass by[00:02:17]

Oh shed up a tear for the croppy boy[00:02:22]
