One day in June
I ascended Vinegar Hill
Near the town of Enniscorthy
As the sun was standing still

I joined a rebel band
20,000 people strong

A braided brunette from Brazil
Spending their day doing nothing
Somewhere in Vinegar Hill

The further we strayed from the market
The closer we walked side by

hometown he don't claim it,
because labels and agents say it's unsavory associations?
I told Lick I would catch him on the flip,
tipped my Vinegar Hill

a million times
The freeman dies just once
So here's to you revolution
May your flame keep burnin' 'til
We meet our Armageddon
Up high on Vinegar Hill

Wexford sweeps o'er the land like a mighty wave
At Vinegar Hill o'er the pleasant
Slaney our heroes vainly stood back to back
And the Yoes at Tullow took

Now we can't forget those former years
They're kept in memory still
Of the Wexford men of Ninety-Eight
Who fought at Vinegar Hill
With Father Murphy by

good will
To see our friends and neighbours
Who were at Vinegar Hill
A young man from our ranks
A cannon he let go
And slapped it into Lord Mountjoy

Murphy of the County Wexford
Sweeps o'er the land like a mighty wave.

At Vinegar Hill, o'er the pleasant Slaney,
Our heroes vainly stood back to back,

I took my baby to Vinegar Hill
She planted a kiss on me and it gave me a thrill
I said I'll keep you in my pocket like a two-dollar bill
She said
