| Lyrics |
Chorus
Gather up the pots and the old tin can the mash and the corn and the barley and the bran and run like the devil from the excise man keep the smoke from rising Barney
Keep your eyes well peeled today - the excise men are on their way - searching the hills for the mountain tay in the hills of Conemarra
Chorus
Swing it to the left - swing it to the right - the excise men will dance all night - searching for the tay til the broad daylight in the hills of Conemarra
Chorus
A quart for the butcher - a quart for the don a gallon for poor old father Tom - to help the poor old boy along in the hills of Conemarra
Chorus
Hurry up now before it's too late - the excise men are at the gate - glory be to Paddy they're drinking it straight in the Hills of Conemarra
