My name is George Campbell, my age is sixteen
I joined the United Men to fight for the green
And many's the battle I did undergo
When commanded by that hero, bold General Munro

Were you at the battle of Ballinahinch?
When the people oppressed, rose up in defense
And Munro took the mountains, his men took the field
And they fought for three hours and never did yield

Munro being weary and in need of some sleep
He gave a woman ten guineas his secret to keep
But she got the money, the devil tempted her so
That she sent for the army and surrendered Munro

Well, the army, they came and surrounded them all
He thought to escape but he could not at all
And they marched him to Lisburn without more delay
And they hung our bold hero the very same day.

Were you at the farm when the cavalry came there?
How the horses did caper and prance in the rear!
And the traitor being with them as you may all know
It was out of a haystack they hauled poor Munro

In came Munro's sister, she was well dressed in green
She'd a sword by her side that was long, sharp and keen
Three cheers she did give and away she did go
Saying “I'll have revenge for my brother Munro.”

Munro being taken and lead to the tree
He says farewell to my comrades wheresoever they may be
There's one thing that grieves me and that's parting them so
So farewell to that hero, bold general Munro.
