Song Lyrics
and list while i sing
i ve read of our heroes
My name is o hanlon, come all ye young rebels Liam, six counties lie under john bull s tyranny
This ireland of ours has too long been half free, his wounds from the fighting all bloody and bare
And it makes us all part of the patriot game, i learned all my life cruel england to blame Liam, they told me how connolly was shot in his chair
They told me how connolly was shot in his chair, i don t mind a bit if i shoot down police
it banishes fear with the speed of a flame
And i wanted the same, and i wish that my air rifle had given the same, and i ve just turned sixteen
and list while i sing
it banishes fear with the speed of a flame
extra verse i found
Come all ye young rebels, i ve read of our heroes
My home is in monaghan, i ve read of our heroes, the rebels who sold out the patriot game
the rebels who sold out the patriot game
This ireland of ours has too long been half free, they are lackeys for war never guardians of peace
Six counties lie under john bull s tyranny, my name is o hanlon, so now i am part of the patriot game
This ireland of ours has too long been half free, my name is o hanlon
To play out my part in the patriot game, and it makes us all part of the patriot game Game, so now i am part of the patriot game
it s nearly two years since i wandered away
for the love of one s country is a terrible thing
with the local battalion of the bold ira
And it makes us all part of the patriot game, his fine body twisted
And it makes us all part of the patriot game, i think of those traitors who bargained in souls, all battered and lame
And yet at deserters i m never let aim, six counties lie under john bull s tyranny Game, for the love of one s country is a terrible thing
to those quislings who sold out the patriot game
I think of those traitors who bargained in souls, and i wish that my air rifle had given the same
his fine body twisted
His fine body twisted, this ireland of ours has too long been half free Liam, extra verse i found
and yet at deserters i m never let aim
His wounds from the fighting all bloody and bare, it s nearly two years since i wandered away
So now i am part of the patriot game, for the love of one s country is a terrible thing
i learned all my life cruel england to blame
six counties lie under john bull s tyranny
so now i am part of the patriot game
I don t mind a bit if i shoot down police, this ireland of ours has too long been half free The, to those quislings who sold out the patriot game
i learned all my life cruel england to blame
It banishes fear with the speed of a flame, six counties lie under john bull s tyranny
They told me how connolly was shot in his chair, come all ye young rebels, i learned all my life cruel england to blame
it s nearly two years since i wandered away
To play out my part in the patriot game, they soon made me part of the patriot game
for the love of one s country is a terrible thing
they soon made me part of the patriot game
With the local battalion of the bold ira, my body all holes or
His wounds from the fighting all bloody and bare, all battered and lame The, so now i am part of the patriot game
and list while i sing
and now as i lie or
And i ve just turned sixteen, it banishes fear with the speed of a flame
