Kevin Barry - The Clancy Brothers/Tommy Makem[00:00:00]
Written by:Terrence Ward[00:00:02]
In Mountjoy jail one Monday morning[00:00:04]
High above the gallows seen[00:00:10]
Kevin Barry gave his young life[00:00:14]
For the 'cause of liberty[00:00:19]
Just a lad of eighteen summers[00:00:24]
Yet no true man can deny[00:00:29]
As he walked to death that morning[00:00:34]
He proudly held his head up high[00:00:39]
Another martyr for old Erin[00:00:45]
Another martyr for the crown[00:00:50]
The British laws may crush the Irish[00:00:56]
But cannot keep their spirits down[00:01:02]
Just before he faced the hangman[00:01:08]
In his dreary prison cell[00:01:13]
The British soldiers tortured Barry[00:01:18]
Just because he would not tell[00:01:24]
The name of all his brave companions[00:01:30]
And other things they wished to know[00:01:35]
An informer or we'll kill you[00:01:41]
Kevin Barry answered no[00:01:46]
Another martyr for old Erin[00:01:51]
Another martyr for the crown[00:01:57]
The British laws may crush the Irish[00:02:03]
But can not keep their spirits down[00:02:09]
