   every lane and pass
   Guns pointed on each object and especially an ass
   Now in every hut and barrack square, they've electric wires laid
   To warm up the Black and Tans in case or time of raid
   But this donkey being harmless meant no one to offend
   Got entangled in the wires and called up all the men
   Then the "tommies" almost wild with fright and of raiders had their doubt
   Thought it better to call assistance before theye'd turn out
   Rang out the Boyle's veery lights who came three hundred strong
   And with high explosives round Drumdoe
   played a terrible ding dong
   This donkey got no caution no courtmartial could be held
   Because he came from Ireland immediately he fell
   But had he come from London like the blood hounds or the tans
   They would wait for information
   of hour the raid was planned
