Gallant Band
Leave
me alone on the Hill of
Shinrone, To talk to the
bold Fenian men They're
fighting here and they're
fighting everywhere Is there
nothing left but despair.
They're meeting in the
halls, they're marching on
the Dail There seems to be
no peaceful common ground
I hear some people say, too
much a price to pay
For peace and freedom and
for liberty.
Let us praise those men of
glory and listen to their
stories, of Collins, Pearse,
and Plunkett and all that
gallant band, We will rally
around the flag boys and
always keep our heads high,
It won't be long before
we're a nation once again.
The time is long gone past,
we're getting nowhere fast
They're taking all the heat
at Downing Street
Dublin's
Teachta
Dáil
its time you made your call
For freedom and for justice
one and all.
