I sing the song of the
How many years and still not free
And your mother and you ask god why
is the knife and the scars run deep
How many races with much reason to
And your cry
And you ask god why

Annie, she came from Dunlavin
The TB came and killed her all around
Population
in two rooms
Katie she from down Townsend street
Ten in a bed and no shoes on their

They played the game
Freddy, he came from the flats
slums and infested with rats
Sleeping on damp
Trying not to the law
Thomas, he from Kilmaine in Mayo
Semi starvation was the only life you'd
In a two room
Then jailed in

To the north and the south, and I'm not too

And still they teach you in your
those glorious days of rule
And how it's your to be

But if you've any of mind
You'll see that all human
Are the children of earth
And your hate for them will chew you up and you out

You'll kill our will to be free, to be free
You'll never kill our will to be free, to be
our minds we hold, hold the key
