Come all ye loyal Orangemen and in
full chorus join,
Think on the deeds of William and his conquest at the Boyne,
And gratefully commemorate that ever glorious day
That crown'd the mighty hero King and ended Popish sway.
Chorus.
Then band together firmly and popery
overthrow
Like to your gallant brethren the Boys of Sandy Row.
Likewise yeze Presbyterians that for
the truth contend
Come forward now and manfully your chartered rights defend
From fenians and from paypishes that fiercely youse assail
And hope throughout Green Erin's Isle to carry a repeal.
Chorus.
Th' intriguing paypishes surround this
loyal and ancient town
They tried you know not long ago to pull the Bible down
And to destroy it root and branch they often have combined
But from Sandy Row we made them fly like chaff before the wind.
Chorus.
To brave and gallant Johnston who'd
always do and dare
Now let a bumper toast go round with honours from the chair
The Boyne we never will forget nor Derry Walls renowned
And should like days again return we'll be at our posts to be found.
Chorus.
