Y'all's my greats, My great, great granddad was a A monarch stout and He surveyed this so green And he said, "She's and humble"
As far as the eye can see From to Giant's Causeway Was ours until they And made a of me
a Celtic head had rolled And upon the hillside And bathed their horses hooves In blood and their hide
In exile, they did Set up a church and there the landlord and the bailiff Made it
Oh, and on the road they to run Run the runnin's done Far away from chain The land was to barter
We succumb from and strain And look they're behind again If they me boys 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 they make a of me
the sea they sailed To a land bright and noble For they'd watched neighbors starve And the as it fumbled
As they reached the side Old said to Jimmy 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 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 road they to run Run until the done Far away from fettered The land was ours to
We succumb sweat and strain And look right behind again If catch me, boys I know make a criminal of me
A criminal of me, a of me A wandering forever, hungering A criminal of me, a of me Run, run, they 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, before make a criminal of me
Oh, now my he steps so gay So gaily up the While I dull the in pubs can't afford to eat
He is dashing, he is And he'll want you see Even as the factory His shoes reflect the in me
Violent and now in the street nothing 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 hatred out of their For anger and make you Just pathetic, drunken, violent paddy dead
On the road they to run Run until the runnin's Far away from chain The land was ours to
We succumb from sweat and And look they're behind again If they catch me I know they'll make a of me
Oh a criminal of me, a of me A forever, hungering eternally Oh a of me, oh a criminal of me Run, run, they make a criminal of me
Run, run, before they make a of me Run, run, before they make a of me
