lirik lagu mick moloney, robbie o’connell & jimmy keane - here i am from donegal
[verse 1]
well here i am from donegal
and i’m most discontented
for to see the way that we’re run down
not highly represented
for it seems it is a general rule
to make out pat out a knave or a fool
but never mind he’ll play it cool
and he’ll stand up for old ireland
[chorus]
give me justice, treat me fair
and i’ll not be discontented
and i’ll not be laughed at anywhere
but highly represented
[verse 2]
when on the stage i do appеar
with a thundering big shillelagh
and a ragged coat and tattеred clothes
you would think i come out gaily
with not a word of common sense
they don’t care that they give offense
but they carry on at pat’s expense
just let them come to ireland
[chorus]
give me justice, treat me fair
and i’ll not be discontented
and i’ll not be laughed at anywhere
but highly represented
[verse 3]
now mr. punch in his literature
he treats us very badly
and when he draws his caricatures
he presents us very sadly
with crooked limbs and villainous face
he thus depicts the irish race
we think it is a sad disgrace
and we say so in old ireland
[chorus]
give me justice, treat me fair
and i’ll not be discontented
and i’ll not be laughed at anywhere
but highly represented
[verse 4]
they say we are dirty and lazy got
but what’s the use to grumble?
for if they should enter an irish cot
they’re made welcome though it’s humble
and in public works the country round
or where hard work it is to be found
in the railway tunnels underground
you’ll find the boys from ireland
[chorus]
give me justice, treat me fair
and i’ll not be discontented
and i’ll not be laughed at anywhere
but highly represented
[verse 5]
tis very true i like a glass
of porter or of whiskey
i am partial to a pretty lass
she’d make me feel quite frisky
i am very quiet when left alone
but i’ll defend what is me own
and woe be to the foes of home
who would dare run down ireland
[chorus]
give me justice, treat me fair
and i’ll not be discontented
and i’ll not be laughed at anywhere
but highly represented
