go lucky four - up went nelson lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
up went nelson!

[chorus]
up went nelson in old dublin
up went nelson in old dublin
all along o’connell street the stones and rubble flew
as up went nelson and the pillar too

[verse 1]
one early morning in the year of ’66 (hey)
a band of irish laddies were knocking up some tricks
they thought horatio nelson had overstayed a mite
so they helped him on his way with some sticks of gelignite (woah)

[chorus]
up went nelson in old dublin
up went nelson in old dublin
all along o’connell street the stones and rubble flew
as up went nelson and the pillar too

[verse 2]
the irish population came from miles around
to see the english hero lying on the ground
the dublin corporation had no funds to have it done
but the pillar blew to pieces by the ton, ton, ton
[chorus]
up went nelson in old dublin
up went nelson in old dublin
all along o’connell street the stones and rubble flew
as up went nelson and the pillar too

[verse 3]
a crowd of lads and laddies from a dance nearby came out
to see the bits of nelson lying all about
a gasser from the coombe says we’ll have to have a care
in case the corporation put king billy there

[chorus]
up went nelson in old dublin
up went nelson in old dublin
all along o’connell street the stones and rubble flew
as up went nelson and the pillar too
