Y'all's my greats, My great, great granddad was a A monarch and noble He surveyed land so green And he said, "She's and humble"
As far as the eye can see Carrantuohill to Giant's Causeway Was ours they went And a criminal of me
a Celtic head had rolled And upon the hillside And they bathed horses hooves In blood and their hide
In exile, did flee Set up a church and home 'Til the landlord and the it criminality
Oh, and on the road came to run Run until the done Far from fettered chain The was ours to barter
We from 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, hungering 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 watched their neighbors starve And the bloodline as it
As they reached the side Old Papa said to To try and a life So they'd not a criminal of he
"Go be alert", Da Do not for the gentry" poor but proud was he Whenever called discretely
Well, he'd their faces in And in he died poorly But he "Don't let them try and a criminal of ye"
On the they came to run Run the runnin's done Far from fettered chain The was ours to barter
We succumb from and strain And look they're behind again If they catch me, I they'll make a criminal of me
A of me, a criminal of me A forever, hungering eternally A criminal of me, a of me Run, run, before make a criminal of me
Oh a criminal of me, a of me A forever, hungering eternally Oh a criminal of me, oh a of me Run, run, they make a criminal of me
Oh, now my he steps so gay So up the street While I dull the pain in Still afford to eat
He is dashing, he is And he'll never you see Even as the factory His shoes the criminal in me
and drunk now in the street With nothing to me I'm die here in this hole The kids I can't care of with me
But it must be taught to let the And hatred out of heads For anger and make you Just another pathetic, drunken, violent dead
On the they came to run Run until the runnin's Far from fettered chain The was ours to barter
We succumb from and strain And look they're right behind If catch me boys I they'll make a criminal of me
Oh a criminal of me, a of me A wandering forever, hungering Oh a of me, oh a criminal of me Run, run, they make a criminal of me
Run, run, before make a criminal of me Run, run, before they a criminal of me
