Hi Joe this is the best i could, it's from Barry Kerr singing the song on his site, some words might be wrong, i wrote it down the way i heard it. Arise young men and follow me, where bound for the walk in the North Country, We'll rise the hare every hillside and glen, and arise arise brave Armagh men. The search began at the break of dawn, with or dogs by or side we'll cut through the thorn, Crossed on or feet, we'll hunt the hare again, arise arise brave Armagh men. The hare witch I speak we have hunted before, from Lurgan Town to Lough Neagh shore, It'll Tire any dog and ask for more, arise arise brave Armagh men. We'll count on or prey down in kinnego, and talk like a hawk, with or dogs in toe One by one it tired and pain, arise arise brave Armagh men. Since I was a boy I have saw him run, I chased him up and down, For sport and fun, I'll hunt him again before I'm done, arise arise brave Armagh men. You may travel around this country fair, from north Donegal to western Clare, The likes of him you won't find their, you'll nor see the like of the Lurgan hare Arise young men and follow me, where bound for the walk in the north country, We'll rise the hare every hillside and glen, arise arise brave Armagh men.
