Third West Cork Brigade - Declan Hunt/Ray McAreavey/Johnny Beggan

We'll raise our voices in Ireland's praise

Glad are our hearts today

For Ireland's sons have proved their worth

In the good old I R A

All parts fought well for Roisin Dubh

But we a record made

In good old Cork in famed West Cork

The Third West Cork Brigade

The Black and Tans to Ireland came

To send us to their doom

Their doughtiest warriors sallied forth

In lorries from Macrom

But at Kilmichael's bloody fight

Their conquering course was stayed

In good old Cork in famed West Cork

The Third West Cork Brigade

Then at Crosbarry's battlefield

Our gallant boys saw red

For ten to one the Saxon host

Before our onslaught fled

And over the hills we made our way

While our gallant piper played

In good old Cork in famed west Cork

The Third West Cork Brigade

Our boys fought well in every fight

We need not call a name

But Commandants Hales and Barry

Are now well known to fame

Napoleon like they led us on

With courage we obeyed

In good old Cork in famed West Cork

The Third West Cork Brigade

But in our truimphs we shan't forget

Our comrades brave who fell

Some sleep today in nameless graves

But soon their deeds will tell

In grateful Ireland brave and free

We'll have their names displayed

In good old Cork in famed West Cork

The Third West Cork Brigade
