Paddy Goes To Holyhead - Come Out Ye Black & Tans lyrics

I was born in a Dublin street, where the royal drums do beat And the loving English feet they tramped all over us And each day and every night, when me father comes home tight He′d invite the neighbours outside with his chorus [chorus:] Come out Ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man Show your wifes how you won medals down in Flanders Tell them how the IRA, made you ran like hell away From the green and lovely lanes in k**eshandra Come let me hear you tell, how you slammed the brave Parnell When you thought him well and truly persecuted Oh, where are your sneers and jeers, that you loudly let us hear When our heroes of ′16 were executed [chorus] Come tell me how you slew, them poor arabs two by two Like the zulus they had speers and bows and arrows How you bravely faced each one, with your sixteen-pounder-gun And you frightened them poor natives to their marrow [chorus]
