    Good Times and Joy be with Them all
    (As if sung be a Tipperary exile and inscribed to the Tipperary Men's Society in Philadelphia.)
    By a Drangon Boy.
    [-]
    Adieu, adieu, old Slievnamon,
    And Anner's smiling vale adieu,
    To-night the burden of my song,
    My native hills, shall be of you -
    My native hills far, far away
    Tipperary men on you I call
    To sing the chorus of my lay-
    Good times and joy be with them all
    Be with tem all, be with them all
    Good times and joy be with them all
    From Cloran old to Kyleothlea,
    Good times and joy be with them all.
    Adieu, adieu to Moyle's green banks,
    And to Glashawle's side adieu,
