Connelly Was There

Connelly Was There - Ray McAreavey/Johnny Beggan[00:00:00]

Oh there is a page in history[00:00:02]

When the workers first fought back[00:00:05]

When the might of exploitation[00:00:07]

At last began to crack[00:00:10]

In farm and field and factory[00:00:12]

In workshop mine and rail[00:00:14]

A flame was lit[00:00:17]

A beacon bright[00:00:18]

That flame is burning still[00:00:19]

F**k Connolly was there[00:00:21]

Connolly was there[00:00:24]

Brave brave and daunted James[00:00:26]

Connolly was there[00:00:28]

William Martin Murphy[00:00:32]

And his Dublin Millionaires[00:00:33]

Tried bribary and corruption[00:00:36]

Hypocracy and prayers[00:00:38]

To spite the Transport Union[00:00:40]

Their scats they did enlist[00:00:42]

But all their graft was shattered[00:00:44]

By a scarlet iron fist[00:00:46]

And Connolly was there[00:00:49]

Connolly was there[00:00:51]

Brave brave and daunted James[00:00:53]

Connolly was there[00:00:56]

When the bosses tried to sweat the lads[00:00:58]

Way down on Glasgow's Clyde[00:01:01]

A voice like roaring thunder[00:01:03]

Soon shook them in their stride[00:01:05]

In Liverpool and Belfast[00:01:07]

When the worker lives in Hell[00:01:09]

Well Connolly rose and gave them hope[00:01:11]

The truth to you I tell[00:01:13]

And Connolly was there[00:01:16]

Connolly was there[00:01:18]

Brave brave and daunted James[00:01:20]

Connolly was there[00:01:22]

Oh Irishmen the day will come[00:01:25]

When workers one and all[00:01:27]

Will rise up from their bended knees[00:01:30]

And rally to the call[00:01:32]

Throw out the bosses tyranny[00:01:34]

And shout from shore to shore[00:01:36]

For a working man's Republic[00:01:38]

And for freedom evermore[00:01:40]

For Connolly will be there[00:01:42]

Connolly will be there[00:01:45]

Brave brave and daunted James[00:01:47]

Connolly will be there[00:01:49]
