    And I'll never roam from my dear old home
    In Tipperary far away
    III
    A lock of my hair, I pray you take
    To my mother who is far from here
    She will think again of her soldier boy
    as she sadly sheds a tear
    Tell her 'tis here by the Liffey's side
    My mouldering bones will lay
    And I'll never roam from my native home
    In Tipperary far away.

    And they dug a grave and in it lay
    Sean Treacy brave and gay
    And he will never roam from his native home
    In Tipperary far away
