[Verse 1]
On the first of November on a bright autumn's day
To the hills of Dromela I chanced for to stray
I was feeding on green grass that grows on yon ground
When my heart was set a beating by the cry of the hounds
[Chorus]
"Mush-a-ri tally-ho! Hark ye over hi-ho"
"Hark ye over", cried the huntsman, "hark ye over hi-ho"
[Verse 2]
They hunted me up and they hunted me down
The bold huntsmen of Stratham on my tail sent the hounds
Over highlands and lowlands moorlands also
Over hedges and ditches like the wind I did go
[Chorus]
"Mush-a-ri tally-ho! Hark ye over hi-ho"
"Hark ye over", cried the huntsman, "hark ye over hi-ho"
[Verse 3]
There was Ringwood and Rouser they gave me a close brush
But they soon found me hiding twas in the rush bush
For better or worse I know I must die
But I’ll do my endeavor these hounds to defy
