Ned heard the sing from the old PeopleLord Leitrim
You men of Tipperary
Did ya hear from Donegal
Where Rory and his gallant men
Proved Lord Leitrim's sad downfallIt being on the second of April
In the year of '78
Hope the youths of Ireland
Will remember of that dateLord Leitrim said that morning
Come put the horses to
Not fearing that untimely death
To him was so long due(continues on next page)- Collector
