There's a nice version that Eddie Butcher of Magiligan ,County Antrim would sing..the first verse is:
You noble-hearted heros come listen unto me Whilst I relate and communicate of a mournful tragedy It's all about a galliant youth who was cut down in his bloom And hanged upon the gallows tree, close by the bridge of Toom.
I'm sure it's been recorded somewhere by now. But Eddie made a great job of it, as he did of all his songs. God bless him.
