The Galtee Mountain Boy

I joined the flying column in 1916
In Cork with Sean Moylan
Tipperary with Dan Breen
Arrested by free staters
And sentenced for to die
Farewell to Tipperary
Said the Galtee mountain boy

I went across those mountains
And over valleys green
And we went with Dinny Lacey
Sean Hogan and Dan Breen
Sean Moylan and his gallant band
They kept the flag flying high
Farewell to Tipperary
Said the Galtee mountain boy.
