lirik lagu dominic behan – come out, ye black and tans
[verse 1]
i was born on a dublin street where the royal drums do beat
and the loving english feet they tramped all over us
and each and every night when me father’d come home tight
he’d invite the neighbors outside with this chorus
[chorus]
come out ye black and tans
come out and fight me like a man
show your wife how you won medals down in flanders
tell her how the ira made you run like h~ll away
from the green and lovely lanes of k!llashandra
[verse 2]
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 loudly let us hear
when our leaders of sixteen were executed
[chorus]
come out ye black and tans
come out and fight me like a man
show your wife how you won medals down in flanders
tell her how the ira made you run like h~ll away
from the green and lovely lanes of k!llashandra
[verse 3]
come tell us how you slew
them old arabs two by two
like the zulus they had spears and bows and arrows
how bravely you faced one
with your sixteen pounder gun
and you frightened them d~mn natives to their marrow
[chorus]
come out ye black and tans
come out and fight me like a man
show your wife how you won medals down in flanders
tell her how the ira made you run like h~ll away
from the green and lovely lanes of k!llashandra
[verse 4]
allen, larkin, and o’brien~~
how you bravely called them swine!
robert emmett who you hung and drew and quartered!
high upon that scaffold high
how you murdered henry joy!
and our croppy boys from wexford you did slaughter!
[verse 5]
the day is coming fast
and the time is here at last
when each yeoman will be cast aside before us
and if there be a need
sure my kids wil sing, “godspeed!”
to a verse or two of steven behan’s chorus
[chorus]
come out ye black and tans
come out and fight me like a man
show your wife how you won medals down in flanders
tell her how the ira made you run like h~ll away
from the green and lovely lanes of k!llashandra
