THE BRIGHT ORANGE HEROES OF COMBER


On the twelfth of July last
as Greyabbey town we passed
to Kircubbin where we did assemble
the rebels they did pray for a curse on us
that day and their hearts within them did tremble.

As we passed down Shuttle Row,
that's a rebel place you know
thinking we were useless lumber,
they swore they'd break our drum
if we up to them did come
but we're the bright Orange heroes of Comber.

O Connell he does boast
of this great big rebel host
He says they are ten thousand in number.
But half of them, you'll find
they are both lame and blind
but we're the bright Orange heroes of Comber.

So here's a loyal toast
may all base traitors roast!
Confound the foes of the Orange Order!
For we'll give blow for blow
while swift Boyne waters flow
for we're the bright Orange heroes of Comber.
