No that is not the song. It's in Irish. I wish I could
be more specific but I don't remember any of the
words. I think one of the verses said that it was a
pity she didn't have hens (Is trua nach bhfuil cearce
agat?) But really I am not sure.

But thanks for the effort!

If you mean the English language rebel song (Oh, the
French are on the
sea, says the Sean Van Vocht,....), the lyrics can be
found on this web
site:

There is a fine rendition of it on Frank Harte's
recording, 1798, the
First Year of Liberty (available from Ossian USA,
