It was Gon a dreary new year's eve as the Cshades of Dnight came Gdown,
A lorry load of vColunteGers approachEmed the Cborder Dtown,
There was Gmen from Dublin Cand from GCork, EmFermanagh Cand TyDrone,
And their lGeader was a Limerick man CSean South from DGarryGowen


GAnd as they moved along the streets up Cto the Dbarrack Gdoor,
They scorned the danger Cthey mightG face, the Emfate that Clay in Dstore,
They were Gfighting for old CIrelaGnd, to Emclaim their Cvery Down,
And the fGoremost of that gallant band was CSouth from DGarryGowen.


GBut the sergeant foiled their daring plan, he Cspied them Dthrough the Gdoor,
Then the Sten guns and the Crifles Gpeeled, Ema hail of Cdeath did Dpour,
And Gwhen that awful Cnight was Gpast, two Emmen lay aCs cold as Dstone,
There was Gone from near the border, and Cone from DGarryoGwen.


GNo more he'll hear the seagull cry o'er the Cmurmuring DShannon Gtide,
For he fell beneath a CNorthern Gsky, Embrave Hanlon Cby Ghis Dside,
They have Ggone to join that Cgallant Gband of EmPlunkett CPearse and DTone,
A Gmartyr for old Ireland, Sean CSouth from DGarryGowen
