Come all ye young rebels, and list while I sing,For the love of one's country is a terrible thing.It banishes fear with the speed of a flame,And it makes us all part of the patriot game.My name is O'Hanlon, and I've just turned sixteen.My home is in Monaghan, and where I was weanedI learned all my life cruel England's to blame,So now I am part of the patriot game.This Ireland of ours has too long been half free.Six counties lie under John Bull's tyranny.But still De Valera is greatly to blameFor shirking his part in the Patriot game.They told me how Connolly was shot in his chair,His wounds from the fighting all bloody and bare.His fine body twisted, all battered and lameThey soon made me part of the patriot game.It's nearly two years since I wandered awayWith the local battalion of the bold IRA,For I read of our heroes, and wanted the sameTo play out my part in the patriot game.I don't mind a bit if I shoot down policeThey are lackeys for war never guardians of peaceAnd yet at deserters I'm never let aimThe rebels who sold out the patriot gameAnd now as I lie here, my body all holesI think of those traitors who bargained in soulsAnd I wish that my rifle had given the sameTo those Quislings who sold out the patriot game.
Lyrics by St. Patrick's Day
