Oh it's of a brave young highway man 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 wealthy noble 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 went down

He met the Mayor of Cashel, a mile outside the town

The Mayor, he knew his features, and he said, 'young man', said he

'Your name is Willie Brennan you must come along with me.

Chorus:

And it's Brennan On The Moor, Brennan On The Moor

Bold, brave and undaunted was young Brennan On The Moor.

Now Brennan's wife had gone to town, provisions for to buy

And when she saw her Willie she commenced to weep and cry

She said, "Hand to me that tenpenny", as soon as Willie spoke

She handed him a blunderbuss from underneath her cloak.

Chorus:

For young Brennan On The Moor, Brennan On The Moor

Bold, brave and undaunted was young Brennan On The Moor.

Then with this loaded Blunderbuss, the truth I will unfold

He made the Mayor to tremble and robbed him of his gold

One hundred pounds was offered for his apprehension there

So he with horse and saddle to the mountains did repair.

Chorus:

Did young Brennan On The Moor, Brennan On The Moor

Bold, brave and undaunted was young Brennan On The Moor.

Now Brennan being an outlaw upon the mountain high

With cavalry and infantry to take him they did try

He Laughed at them with scorn until at last 'twas said

By a falsehearted he was cruelly betrayed.

Chorus:

And it's Brennan On The Moor, Brennan On The Moor

Bold, brave and undaunted was young Brennan On The Moor
