Notes:

• The song is an old traditional Irish drinking song. It is such a popular song in Ireland that
  fans there have come to expect it to be played and chant for it incessantly. When the
  band didn't play it in 2003, they were actually booed! Ever since then the song is played
  without fail at every Dublin show, but nowhere else.
• The song is about a young bandit who robs an army officer to keep his girlfriend happy
  and was imprisoned after she betrayed him.
