While I knew the tune had lyrics, I've never really known it as anything but a fife and drum tune played by British regiments. I think they still play it. The BBC Overseas Service starts their broadcast with a few bits from it.

For the decidedly anti-Irish lyrics sung by the English, see http://www.multidoc.co.nz/65th/Songbook/lillibul.htm

What were the Irish lyrics?
