ANNIE MOORE aka THE BALLAD OF ANNIE MOORE
https://digital.ucd.ie/view-media/ivrla:6136/canvas/ivrla:6137

The link is to a digitalised copy of a Broadsheet ballad in the Colm Ó Lochlainn collection at University College Dublin. The lyrics put me in mind of the Irish nationalist song "The Wind that Shakes the Barley". In this case, Annie Moore is a Belfast Protestant Loyalist who was shot when infantry fired at the crowd.
