Irish Folksongs - A Fenian song lyrics

rate me

From fair Toronto town they came

To put the Irish all to shame -

The Queen's and Colonel Boker!

2. What fury fills each loyal mind!

No volunteer would stay behind.

They flung their red rag to the wind -

"Hurrah, my boys!" said Boker.

3. Now helter skelter Ohio,

See how they play that "heel and toe"!

See how they run from their Irish foe -

The Queen's and Colonel Boker!
