lirik lagu dominic behan – the patriot game
[verse 1]
come all you young rebels, and list’ while i sing
for love of one’s land is a terrible thing
it banishes fear with the speed of a flame
and it makes us all part of the patriot game
[verse 2]
my name is o’hanlon, and i’m just gone sixteen
my home is in monaghan, there i was weaned
i was taught all my life cruel england to blame
and so i’m a part of the patriot game
[verse 3]
’tis barely two years since i wandered away
with the local battalion of the bold ira
i read of our heroes and wanted the same
to play up my part in the patriot game
[verse 4]
they told me how connolly was shot in a chair
his wounds from the battle all bleeding and bare
his fine body twisted, all battered and lame
they soon made me part of the patriot game
[verse 5]
this ireland of mine has for long been half~free
six counties are under john bull’s monarchy
and still de valera is greatly to blame
for shirking his part in the patriot game
[verse 6]
i don’t mind a bit if i shoot down police
they’re lackeys for war, never guardians of peace
but yet at deserters i’m never let aim
those rebels who sold out the patriot game
[verse 7]
and now as i lie with my body of holes
i think of those traitors who bargained and sold
i’m sorry my rifle has not done the same
for the quislings who sold out the patriot game
