TULLYLAGAN JUNIOR PIPE BAND

There's good bands in Old Ireland and their music is simply grand

But the boys from Tullylagan, are the ones that take the stand

Their pipes and drums play music, all in a lovely tone

The pride of Old Mid Ulster, these lads from Co Tyrone

You can travel South or travel North, you can journey East or West

You'll find them there I do declare, at every good band test.

They went across to Monaghan, by bus they travelled up

And returned again that evening with the money and the cup.

With the Warnocks and the Hassins, William Totton and Jim Duke

These make up the pipers and a grand lot they do look

There's Morrow, Kennedy and Anderson, Scott, Hutton and John Rea

These boys they do the drumming, and how this band can play!

So here's to Tullylagan, may next season be as bright

And when I see them marching, sure it is a lovely sight

With their kilts all a swinging and music all in tone

Long may you play and keep winning, this band from Co Tyrone.
