    to jail
    Chorus
    The banner of Freedom is waving there still
    While gaurded by Abbey and brave Abbeyville
    Coolfin's lovely castle in the valley look down
    That brightens the glories of sweet Ballygown
    Patrick Collins Pallas
    Michael Collins Pallas
    Composed by John Finn Ballygown when the landlord Lewis Ballinagare was evicting the tenants during the Plan of Campaign
