    We're assembled in New York ¶ Exiles all from rebel Cork ¶ And we're proud of the flag that o'er us waves

    We're assembled in New York
    Exiles all from rebel Cork
    And we're proud of the flag that o'er us waves
    For to night out memories turn
    To the spot where we were born
    To that dear old land that never nurtured slaves
    Chorus
    Up! Up! Newmarket cried the exiles
    Up! Up! Newmarket cry we all
    Whether we shall here remain
    Or return home again
    May Newmarket ever rise and never fall.
    2.
    In the charming Island Wood
    When with joy we often stood
    Gazing at the scene of beauty all around
    And rambling up Scarteen
    Barley Hill and Meens between
    Oh! what pleasure and contentment there we found
    Chorus
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
