_We_ play the Minority's parts?
_We_ bow to the yoke of TIM HEALY?
_We_ stoop to the Papisthry rule?
Faix! them who imagine it really
Must fancy that "Orange" spells "fool."
Ri fol didder rol didder rol!

_We_ consint to a sham House o' Commons
Established on ould College Green?
They fancy we're Radical rum 'uns!
Allaygiance we owe to our QUEEN!
But we're fly to _their_ thraitorous dodges;
Our loyalty's edge would they dull?
Fwit! We'll pour like a flood from our Lodges,
And crack every "National" skull!
Ri fol didder rol didder rol!

We're all friends of Law and of Order,
But would they wrench _us_ from the Crown?
We'll soon be a-singing "_Boyne Water_,"
And marching to "_Croppies, lie down!_"
'Tis we have the Men and the Money,
We don't _want_ to foight, we're quite cool.
But, by Jingo, our foes will look funny,
When Ulster turns out 'gin Home Rule!
Ri fol didder rol didder rol!

To-day in our myriads we muster.
Friendly _warning_ is all that _we_ mean.
