    The hall it was full but the boys were not dancing,
    There was long Jim Mulqueen the head over all,
    He felt very sad when he saw them all prancing,
    When he hadn't his girls at Byrne's Ball.

    Newtown Hill is standing still
    And ever will stand true,
    We will cast our votes and turn our coats
    For the Lord of sweet Tervoe.
