  1. And rushes through the ivy bridge in Dear old Newport Town.
    Adieu Adieu sweet Newport Town once more I say Adieu,
    For many a happy day I spent with comrades loyal and true,
    If God spares me, I will return where the Mulcair waters flow,
    And when I die my bone's will lie below in Ballymackeogh.
