And [E] many a wealthy noble man [B] before him shook with fear.
And it's Brennan none the more, Brennan none the more.
He [E] was brave and [B] undaunted, was young Brennan none the more.
One day upon the highway, [E] as Willie [B] went down,
He met the mayor of Cashel, [E] a mile [B] outside the town.
_ The mayor, he knew his features, [E] and he said, young [B] man, said he,
[E] Your name is Willie Brennan, [B] you must come along with me.
And it's Brennan none the more, Brennan none the more.

He made the mayor to tremble, [E] and he rubbed him [B] of his gold.
One hundred pounds was offered [E] for his up-branch and there.
So he went up and saddled [B] to the mountains to prepare,
Eight young Brennan none the more, Brennan none the more.
[E] He was brave [B] and undaunted, was young Brennan none the more.
Now Brennan being an oak, [E] up on the [B] mountains high,
With cavalry and infantry [E] to take a [B] lady's ride,
He laughed at them with scorn, [E] but till at last [B] he said,
By [E] a false-hearted woman he [B] was truly betrayed.
Was young Brennan none the more, Brennan none the more.
He [E] was brave and [B] undaunted, was young Brennan none the more.
_ _ They took Brennan to the crossroads [E] and there he hung [B] and died. _
But still they say that in the night [E] there's some do see [B] him ride. _
_ They see him with his blunderbuss all in the midnight chill,
[E] And call him the king's highway. _ _
_ [B] I told ye Brennan's still, and it's Brennan none the more.
Brennan none the more.
