-'''BANKS OF THE BANN, THE.''' Irish, Air (3/4 time). F Major (Joyce, O'Boyle): G Major (Miller & Perron). Standard tuning. One part. See also "[[Slane]]," "[[With My Love on the Road]]." Hilltown, mentioned below in the beginning verse of the song, is in the County Down. The song tells a tale of seduction and abandonment and a hope for reunion on the banks of the river Bann, capped with a come-all-ye last verse. O Boyle dates the tune to "sometime in the 19th century" by mention of homeweaving prior the introduction of the power loom in Ulster.
