lyrics

Oh after morning, there comes an evening
And after after evening, a new day
And after false love there comes a true love
I’ll have you listen now to what I say
My love he is as fine a young man
As fair as any the sun shone on
But how to save him I do not know it
For he is sentenced to be hung
As he was marching the streets of Derry
I’m sure he marched up right manfully
Being much more like a commanding officer
than a man to die on the gallows tree
What keeps my love so long a coming
Oh what detains her right long from me
Or does she think it some shame or scandal
to see me hang the gallows tree
He looked around and he saw her coming
As she rode swifter than the wind
I’ll show them now that they dare not hang you
I’ll crown my love with a bunch of green
