[D]Dunmore we quitted,
[G]Michelmas gone[G7] by
Cow[C]hides and wool and live[Am] car[D]go
[G]Twenty young wild
geese
Ready fledged to fly
Sailing for the [D]Lowlands [G]Low,,[G7]
The[C] lowlands [G]low, the [C]low[D]lands [G]low
Sailing for the [D]lowlands [G]low
Shaun Paor's the skipper
From the church of Crook
Peary keeps log for his father
Crew all from Bannow
Fethard
and the Hook
Sailing for the Lowlands low
These twenty wild geese
Gave Queen Anne the slip
Crossing to Louis in Flanders
He and Jack Malbrook
Both
are in a grip
Fighting in the Lowlands Low
Close lay a rover
Off the Isle of Wight
Either a Salee or Saxon!
Out through the sea mist
We bade them
goodnight
Sailing for the Lowlands Low
Ready with priming,
We'd our galliot gun
Muskets and pikes in good order
We should be riddled,
Captives would
be none
Death! or else the Lowlands low
Pray Holy Brendan,
Turk nor Algerine
Dutchman nor Saxon may sink us!
We'll bring Geneva,
Sack and Rhenish
wines
Safely from the lowlands low
