LEt Peals of Bells most sweetly Ring, and Loyal Healths go freely round, For here right Joyful News I bring, our Army is with Conquest Crown'd; While Rebels they are overthrown, That Land we soon shall make our own. Upon the twelfth day of July, we past the River Shannon, Boys, To gain a famous Victory, over the French and the Dear-Joys; We fought, and they were overthrown, That Kingdom will be soon our own.
When they our Army did espy, approach with shining Armour bright, Unto the Bogs they strait did fly, their Passes to maintain and fight; They were repuls'd and overthrown, That Kingdom will be soon our own. From Bogs & Hills our Troops did drive the Tories that were Posted there, Or few would have been left alive, but that they did with speed repair To Camp where they were overthrown, That Kingdom will be soon our own.
Full eight & twenty thousand men, these Forces were, of Foot and Horse, But as we did Attacque them then, their whole design we soon did cross; They routed were, and overthrown, That Kingdom will be soon our own. From Trench to trench, brave boys we beat the French and Tory Enemies, Our fire forc'd them to retreat, with many bitter groans and cries; They being beat and overthrown, That Kingdom soon will be our own. Like Noble Heroes of Renown, we soon did make the Rebels yield, While Ranks and Files we there cut down, our Swords did sweetly reap the field; They routed were, and overthrown, That Kingdom soon will be our own. The Armies both ingag'd did fight, full three long hours sharp dispute, At length the dark and gloomy Night, did stop us in our swift pursuit; Our Foes are fled and overthrown, That Kingdom will be soon our own.
The Rebels never fought so well, nor stood the field so long before; Above six thousand of them fell, and lay in streams of reeking Gore; Their Army now is overthrown, That Kingdom will be soon our own. We did with Courage them pursue, and gain'd the Conquest of the day, Their Baggage, nay, and Cannon too, with all they had become our Prey; Thus were the Rebels ovethrown, That Kingdom will be soon our own. To play likewise a Warlike tune, for Galloway we next shall go, And if they don't surrender soon, we'll lay their lofty Buildings low; The storm is almost overblown, That Kingdom will be soon our own. The King & Queen, may Heavens bless, with lasting Trophies of Renown, And grant their Armies good Success, to pull the Pride of Lewis down, The which we hope e're long to see, That Europe may from Wars be free.
