One of the best known songs of the 1798 uprising recounting a battle between the United Irishmen and the British Army. The poem is by John Keegan Casey and the tune is "The Wearing of the Green". This was recorded by The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem and Peter, Paul and Mary. I learned it from The Clancy Brothers. Songs from Irish uprisings and rebellion in this collection are: "Bold Fenian Men" "Boulavogue" "The Boyne Water" "The Boys of Kilmichael" "Croppies Lie Down" "The Croppy Boy" "Kevin Barry" "The Old Orange Flute" "The Protestant Boys" "The Wearing of the Green" "The Wind That Shakes the Barley"
