Dolly's Brae
It'd been on the tweflth day of July, in the year of '49 Five hundred of our Orangemen, together did combine In memory of King William, on that bright and glorious day To march upon Lord Roden's Park and over Dolly's Brae!
For to march upon Lord Roden's Park and over Dolly's Brae!
And when we got toe Weirs bridge, it was a glorius sight To see so many Orangemen, all ready for the fight To march upon the old remain, our music sweet to play And the tune we played was the Protestant Boys right over Dolly's Brae!
And the tune we played was the Protestant Boys right over Dolly's Brae!
Just then two Priests came up to us, and to Mr Spears did say 'Come turn your men the other road, and never cross Dolly's Brae!' 'Begone begone you Papish dogs, you've had nae time to pray Before we throw your carcasses right over Dolly's Brae!' Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
'Before we throw your carcasses right over Dolly's Brae!'
And when we came to the Great Hill, they were ranked on every side And offering up their Papish prayer, for to help them stem the tide But we loosed our guns upon them, and quickly won the day So we knocked five hundred Papishes right over Dolly's Brae!
So we knocked five hundred Papishes right over Dolly's Brae!
So now my song atlast I'll end, my pen I will throw down And with success to every man, that supports the British Crown And generations yet unborn, will mind this place of yore For we named the spot King Williams bridge, and Dolly's Brae no more!
For we named the spot King Williams bridge, and Dolly's Brae no more!
