1
When he stepped up the narrow street
2
Smiling proud and young
3
Around the hemp, around his neck
4
The golden ringlets clung
5
There was never a tear in his blue eyes
6
But sad and bright were they
7
And young Roddy McCorley goes to die
8
On the bridge of Tuam today
9
When he last stepped up that street
10
Shining steel in hand
11
Behind him marched in gray array
12
A stalwart earnest band
13
For Antrim town, for Antrim town
14
He lept into the fray
15
Now young Roddy McCorley goes to die
16
On the bridge of Tuam today
17
See the host of fleet foot men
18
Dismayed with faces wan
19
From Verners house and fishers cut
20
Along the banks of Bann
21
They come with vengeance in their eyes
22
Too late, too late are they
23
For young Roddy McCorley goes to die
24
On the bridge of Tuam today
