dominic behan - it's a grand old country lyrics
[verse 1]
you’ve read of a revolution and you’ve read of the bl++dy wars
you’ve seen our land disfigured by the dirty saxon scars
you know that ships went sailing with our best from vale and hill
but there’s hearts and hands in ireland who will free old ireland still
[chorus]
for it’s a grand old country every time
with its rocks and rivers, lakes and soil and clime
we’re god’s own people and we’ll shout from tower and steeple
it’s a grand old country every time
[verse 2]
how often we’ve been flattened out our history books will show
when mother england battened on our misеry and woe
she slapped us and shе beat us and the snivellers cried “amen!”
but the world knows how ireland rose from out the dust again
[chorus]
for it’s a grand old country every time
with its rocks and rivers, lakes and soil and clime
we’re god’s own people and we’ll shout from tower and steeple
it’s a grand old country every time
[verse 3]
i’ll pray for mother england while i’m waiting on the day
i’ll pray for mother england ’til i’m blind and bald and grey
i’ll pray that dyin’ she may die and drownin’ she may drown
and if ever she tries to lift her head i’ll be there to push it down
[chorus]
for it’s a grand old country every time
with its rocks and rivers, lakes and soil and clime
we’re god’s own people and we’ll shout from tower and steeple
it’s a grand old country every time
