Verse 1
Twas one morning in july I was walking through tipperary,
when I heard a battle cry from the mountains overhead
I looked up to the sky and saw an Irish soldier laddie,
and he looked at me right fearlessly and said
Chorus
Will you stand in the band like a true Irishman,
Will you go to fight the forces of the crown?
Will you march with O'Neil to an Irish battlefield
For tonight we're going to free old Wexford town
Verse 2
Said I to the soldier boy wont you take me to your captian,
For t'would be my pride and joy for to march with you today
My brother fell at cork and my son at eniscorthy
And to the noble caiptain I did say
Chorus
I will stand in the band like a true Irishman
I will go to fight the forces of the crown
I will march with O'Neil to an Irish battlefield
For tonight we're going to free old Wexford town
Verse 3
As we march back again in the shadow of the evening,
Our banners flying low to the memory of the dead
We return unto our homes, but without our soldier laddie,
I still hear those words he said
Chorus
Will you stand in the band like a true Irishman,
Will you go to fight the forces of the crown?
Will you march with O'Neil to an Irish battlefield
For tonight we're going to free old Wexford town
