   I

   It been in October the year of 68,
   We had a fine hunt in Colonel Maddens estate,
   There were sportmen form Newtown and from Lough-na-Rye
   We all met on Donagh hill our hounds for to try.

   Chorus:
   Tally ho hark away, tally ho hark away,
   Tall ho hark away my boys away come away

   II

   It was there they began trailing a hare for to rise
   The music of Jostler it would you surprise.
   When the hare found them coming she stole away
   In to Drumsastra and on to Cornabrae.

   Chorus

   III

   When the hare she was started she ran round Drumcoff.
   She headed for Screevagh and then for Moorlough
   When she ran round Moorlough she turned back again
   In to Drumsastra and on through Drumrain.

   Chorus

   IV

   It was there she sat down to hear the cry
   She says to John Mc Cusker "This day I will die
   Foryonder comes Jostler and I do him know,
   If ever he eyes me he'll prove my over throw

   Chorus

   V

   Well says Mc Cusker I will strike a plan
   If you run the railway and hide in Bushello land.
