[VERSE 1]

It [C]being the twelfth day of July in the year of [G7]forty-[C]nine,
Five [F]hundred of our [C]Orange men to[G7]gether did combine
In [C]memory of King William on that [G7]bright and glorious day
To [C]march around Lord Roden's park and over [G7]Dolly's [C]Brae
To [F]march around Lord [C]Roden's park and [F]over [G7]Dolly's [C]Brae.

[VERSE 2]

And [C]when we got to Weirsbridge sure it was a [G7]glorious [C]sight
To [F]see so many [C]Orangemen all [G7]ready for to fight
To [C]march around the ould remains our [G7]music sweet to play
And the [C]tune we played was the Protestant Boys right on to [G7]Dolly's [C]Brae
And the [F]Tune we played was the [C]Protestant Boys right [F]on to [G7]Dolly's [C]Brae

[VERSE 3]

Just [C]then two priests came up to us and to Mr [G7]Biers did [C]say:
"Come [F]turn your men the [C]other road and [G7]never cross Dolly's Brae."
"Be[C]gone, begone, you papish dogs, you've [G7]hardly time to pray
Be[C]fore we throw your carcasses right over [G7]Dolly's [C]Brae
Be[F]fore we throw your [C]carcasses right [F]over [G7]Dolly's [C]Brae."

[VERSE 4]

And [C]when we came to that great hill they were ranked on [G7]every [C]side
And [F]offering up their [C]papish prayers for [G7]help to stem the tide
But we [C]loosed our guns upon them and we [G7]quickly won the day
And we [C]knocked five hundred papishes right over [G7]Dolly's [C]Brae
And we [F]knocked five hundred [C]papishes right [F]over [G7]Dolly's [C]Brae

[VERSE 5]

So [C]now my song at last I'll end, my pen I [G7]will throw [C]down,
And [F]wish success to [C]every man sup[G7]ports the British Crown
And [C]generations yet unborn will [G7]mind this place of yore
For we [C]named the spot King William's Ridge and Dolly's [G7]Brae no [C]more.
For we [F]named the spot King [C]William's Ridge and [F]Dolly's [G7]Brae no [C]more.
