Y'all's my greats, My great, great granddad was a A monarch stout and He this land so green And he said, "She's and humble"
As far as the eye can see From Carrantuohill to Giant's Was ours they went And made a of me
Many a head had rolled And rolled the hillside And they bathed horses hooves In Hibernian blood and hide
In exile, they did Set up a and home there the landlord and the bailiff Made it
Oh, and on the they came to run Run until the done Far away fettered chain The was ours to barter
We succumb sweat and strain And look right behind again If they catch me I know make a criminal of me
A criminal of me, a of me A wandering forever, eternally A of me, a criminal of me Run, run, they make a criminal of me
Across the sea they To a land both and noble For they'd their neighbors starve And the bloodline as it
As they reached the side Old Papa to Jimmy To try and a life So they'd not make a of he
"Go be alert", Da Do not for the gentry" Tho' poor but was he Whenever they called
Well, he'd their faces in And in he died poorly But he "Don't let them try and make a of ye"
On the they came to run Run until the done Far away from fettered The land was to barter
We succumb from and strain And look they're right again If catch me, boys I know make a criminal of me
A of me, a criminal of me A wandering forever, eternally A of me, a criminal of me Run, run, they make a criminal of me
Oh a of me, a criminal of me A wandering forever, eternally Oh a criminal of me, oh a of me Run, run, before they make a of me
Oh, now my boss he so gay So up the street While I dull the in pubs can't afford to eat
He is dashing, he is And he'll never you see Even as the factory His reflect the criminal in me
Violent and drunk now in the With to sustain me I'm die here in this hole The kids I can't take of with me
But it be taught to let the blame And out of their heads For and danger make you Just another pathetic, drunken, violent dead
On the road they to run Run until the done Far away from chain The land was ours to
We from sweat and strain And look right behind again If they me boys I know they'll make a of me
Oh a of me, a criminal of me A wandering forever, hungering Oh a of me, oh a criminal of me Run, run, before they make a of me
Run, run, before they a criminal of me Run, run, before they make a of me
