Lyrics
Lift MacAherogue your face
And brood on oh the old disgrace
That Black Fitzwilliam stormed your place
And drove you to the Ferns
Grace had victory was sure
Soon the fire and he'd secure
Until he met at Glenmalure
Pead MacHugh O'Byrne
Curse and swear Lord Killare
People do what people dare
Now Fitzwilliam have a care
Follow me up to Carlow
Up with halberd out with sword
On we go for by the Lord
Pead MacHugh has given the word
Follow me up to Carlow
See the swords of Glen and Nail
Flashing o'er the English tail
See all the children of the Gael
Beneath O'Byrne's banners
Rooster of a fine new stock
Would you let a Saxon cock
Go out upon the night frog
Fly up and teach him manners
Curse and swear Lord Killare
People do what people dare
Now Fitzwilliam have a care
Follow me up to Carlow
Up with halberd out with sword
On we go for by the Lord
Pead MacHugh has given the word
Follow me up to Carlow
From the saga to Clonmore
Flows a stream of Saxon gore
Oh great is Rory O'Gomor
Sending loot to Hades
White is sick, faint is red
Now out by Black Fitzwilliam's head
We send it over dripping red
To the Queen and all her ladies
Curse and swear Lord Killare
People do what people dare
Now Fitzwilliam have a care
Follow me up to Carlow
Up with halberd out with sword
On we go for by the Lord
Pead MacHugh has given the word
Follow me up to Carlow
