Never Beat the Irish - Wolfe Tones[00:00:00]

In eleven sixty seven [00:00:28]

They came to Ireland on the make[00:00:29]

They were followed by invasions[00:00:32]

And by conquests in their wake[00:00:34]

The Kings and Queens of England[00:00:36]

Made the land a battleground[00:00:38]

They took the land by fraud defeat;[00:00:41]

By murder poison and deceit[00:00:43]

Murder plunder fallaballa clear the way[00:00:45]

Cheating stealing diddly idel day[00:00:48]

Ducking diving fallaballa clear the way[00:00:50]

Diddly aidel doh diddly aidel day[00:00:52]

Then by the fifteenth century[00:00:59]

They held precariously to the Pale[00:01:00]

The invaders were more Irish[00:01:03]

Than the Irish that's the tale[00:01:05]

A fat greedy king[00:01:07]

Called Henry 's dick was bigger than his brain[00:01:08]

Imposed a reformation confiscating usurpation[00:01:12]

And You'll never beat the Irish [00:01:16]

No matter what you do[00:01:20]

You can put us down and keep us out [00:01:25]

But we'll come back again[00:01:30]

You know we are the fighting Irish[00:01:33]

And we'll fight until the end[00:01:38]

You know you should have known[00:01:42]

You'll never beat the Irish[00:01:46]

The virgin Queen Elizabeth [00:02:21]

Brought more turmoil to our land[00:02:23]

She decimated Munster [00:02:25]

Scorched the earth and all at hand[00:02:26]

Then James the first and Charles[00:02:30]

The Mad brought out other greedy bands[00:02:31]

They took the land of Ulster [00:02:34]

Killed their Chieftains poisoned plundered [00:02:36]

Murder plunder fallaballa clear the way[00:02:39]

Cheating stealing diddly idel day[00:02:41]

Ducking diving fallaballa clear the way[00:02:43]

Diddly aidel doh diddly aidel day[00:02:45]

And by defective titles [00:02:52]

They cheated Connaught and the west[00:02:54]

Across the seventeenth century[00:02:56]

From war we had no rest[00:02:59]

For the curse of Cromwell plagued the land [00:03:01]

'Til our towns were red with blood[00:03:03]

Then the Battle of the Boyne was fought by William [00:03:05]

James and foreign hoards[00:03:08]

You'll never beat the Irish no matter what you do[00:03:10]

You can put us down and keep us out [00:03:18]

But we'll come back again[00:03:23]

You know we are the fighting Irish[00:03:27]

And we'll fight until the end[00:03:31]

You know you should have known[00:03:36]

You'll never beat the Irish[00:03:38]

Murder plunder fallaballa clear the way[00:03:43]

Cheating stealing diddly idel day[00:03:45]

Ducking diving fallaballa clear the way[00:03:47]

Diddly aidel doh diddly aidel day[00:03:50]

Murder plunder fallaballa clear the way[00:03:52]

Cheating stealing diddly idel day[00:03:54]

Ducking diving fallaballa clear the way[00:03:56]

Diddly aidel doh diddly aidel day[00:03:59]
