The Dreadnoughts - Grace O'Malley lyrics

Boys, I remember one September Taking arms up to the crown Beaten up and broken down And the maid that Connaught gave us Who could save us from our shame Grace O'Malley was her name Granuaile the Pirate Queen Flashing eyes so wild and green I was only seventeen, boys I'd no right to be In Grace O'Malley's company Her solution, retribution Revolution in the air Sailed we from the county Clare Every galleon or battalion Who bore the British crest Sent them howling from the west Granuaile the Pirate Queen Flashing eyes so wild and green I was only seventeen, boys I'd no right to be In Grace O'Malley's company How we adored her even more sir When the order came around With an offer from the crown Hike the stems boys, up the Thames boys It's Gracie breath to breath With the one Elizabeth Granuaile the Pirate Queen Flashing eyes so wild and green I was only seventeen, boys I'd no right to be In Grace O'Malley's company Just one thousand men No one ever found again She was offered and upset, boys The pure light was she Our Grace O'Malley's Company
