ALLAN TINE O'HARROW.
—
I am a daring highwayman,
My name is Tine O'Harrow,
I'm come of poor but honest folks,
Nigh to the hills of Tarrow.
For getting of a maid with child,
For England I sail'd over,
Leaving my parents almost wild,
Since I became a Rover.
Then straight to London I did go,
Where I became a soldier,
Resolved to fight. Britannia's foes,
Great Hector ne'er was bolder.
They sent me to a foreign coast,
Where cannons loud did rattle,
Believe me boys I do not boast,
How I behaved in battle.
For many's the battle that I've been in,
In Holland And French Flanders,
Always fought with a courage keen,
led on by brave commanders.
