[Lyric] Mountains of Pomeroy (Jackie O'Brien (Singer))

[Verse 1]
And the morn was breaking bright and fair, the lark sings in the sky
As a maiden binds her golden hair with a blithe glance in her eye
For who beyond the grey-green wood, awaited her with joy?
Ah who but gallant Renardine, on the Mountains of Pomeroy

[Chorus]
An outlawed man in a land forlorn, who’d rather fight than fly
And to keep the cause of freedom safe, on lonely mountains high

[Verse 2]
"Ah my love," she said, "I am sore afraid, for the foeman's force, and you
They have tracked you in the valleys green, and all the lowlands too
My kinsmen frown whene’er you’re named, your life they will destroy
And ‘Beware,’ they say, ‘of Renardine on the Mountains of Pomeroy’"

[Chorus]
An outlawed man in a land forlorn, who’d rather fight than fly
And to keep the cause of freedom safe, on lonely mountains high

[Verse 3]
When the morning broke the maiden fled, from her cruel kin and home
And the woods were bright and rosy red, the torrent's tumbling foam
But the mist came down and the tempest roared, and all around did destroy
And a poor drowned bride had Renardine on the mountains of Pomeroy
[Chorus]
An outlawed man in a land forlorn that would rather fight than fly
And to keep the cause of freedom safe, on lonely mountains high
