lirik lagu davitts – come out ye black and tans
i was born on a dublin street where the loyal drums did
beat
and the loving english feet walked all over us,
and every single night when me father’d come home tight
he’d invite the neighbors outside with this chorus:
(chorus)
oh, come out you black and tans,
come out and fight me like a man
show your wife how you won medals down in flanders
tell them how the ira made you run like h-ll away,
from the green and lovely lanes in killeshandra.
come tell us how you slew
them ol’ arabs two by two
like the zulus they had spears and bows and arrows,
how you bravely faced each one
with your sixteen pounder gun
and you frightened them d-mn natives to their marrow.
[chorus]
come let us hear you tell
how you slandered great parnell,
when you thought him well and truly persecuted,
where are the sneers and jeers
that you bravely let us hear
when our heroes of sixteen were executed.
[chorus]
ahh the time is coming fast
and i think them days are near
when each english shod in heel
will run before us
and if there be a need
then our kids will say “god speed”
with a verse or two of singing this fine chorus
[chorus]
