Boulavogue
An Irish rebel song written by Patrick Joseph McCall.
Recorded by The Dubliners it was sung by Jim McCann.
D D7 G
[1] At Boula-vogue as the sun was setting,
D Bm Em A7
O'er the bright May meadows of Shel-malier,
D D7 G
A rebel hand set the heather blazing,
D Bm Em A7 D
And brought the neighbours from far and near,
D D7 G
Then Father Murphy from old Kilcormack
D Bm Em A7
Spurred up the rocks with a warning cry,
D D7 G
"Arm, arm", he cried,"for I've come to lead you,
D Bm Em A7 D
For Ireland's freedom we fight or die."
D D7 G
[2] He led us on 'gainst the coming soldiers,
D Bm Em A7
And the cowardly yeomen were put to flight,
D D7 G
T'was at the Barrow,the boys of Wexford
D Bm Em A7 D
Showed Bookey's regiments how men could fight,
D D7 G
Look out for hirelings,King George of England,
D Bm Em A7
Search every kingdom where breathes a slave.
D D7 G
For Father Murphy from the County Wexford
D Bm Em A7 D
Sweeps o'er the land like a mighty wave.
D D7 G
[3] At Vinegar Hill o'er the pleasant Slaney
D Bm Em A7
Our heroes vainly stood back to back.
D D7 G
And the yeos at Tullow took Father Murphy
D Bm Em A7 D
And burned his body u-pon the rack.
D D7 G
God grant you glory, brave Father Murphy,
D Bm Em A7
And o-pen heaven to all your men,
D D7 G
The cause that called you may call tomorrow
D Bm Em A7 D
In an-other fight for the green a-gain.
