Brennan On The Moor
 
 
Artist: Burl Ives 
Title: Brennan on the moor 
----------------------------------- 
 
Tis of a brave young highwayman, this story we will tell 
His name was Willie Brennan and in Ireland, he did dwell 
'Twas on the Kilworth mountains, he commenced his wild career 
And many a noble wealthy man before him shook with fear 
 
Chorus: 
And it's Brennan on the moor, Brennan on the moor 
Bold, brave and undaunted was young Brennan on the moor 
 
One day upon the highway as Willie, he went down 
He met the mayor of Cashell a mile outside the town 
Now, the mayor, he knew his features and he said "young man," said he 
"Your name is Willie Brennan, you must come along with me" 
 
Now, Brennan's wife had gone to town, provisions for to buy 
And when she saw her Willie, she commenced to weep and cry 
Said "hand to me that tenpenny," as soon as Willie spoke 
She handed him a blunderbuss from underneath her cloak 
 
Now with this loaded blunderbuss, the truth I will unfold 
He made the mayor to tremble and he robbed him of his gold 
One hundred pounds was offered for his apprehension there 
So, he with horse and saddle to the mountain did repair 
 
Now Brennan being an outlaw upon the mountains high 
With cavalry and infantry, to take him they did try 
He laughed at them with scorn until it last was said 
By a false hearted woman, he was cruelly betrayed 
 
They took Willie to the crossroads and there they hung him high 
But still they say that in the night, there's some that see him ride 
They see him with his bluderbuss all in the midnight chill 
As all along the King's Highway rides Willie Brennan still
