Young Ned Of The Hill - The Pogues[00:00:00]
Have you ever walked the lonesome[00:00:22]
Hills and heard the curlews cry[00:00:25]
Or seen the raven black as night[00:00:28]
Upon a windswept sky[00:00:30]
To walk the purple heather[00:00:33]
And hear the westwind cry[00:00:36]
To know that's where[00:00:39]
The Rapparee must die[00:00:40]
As since Cromwell pushed us[00:00:51]
Westward to live our lowly lives[00:00:52]
There's some of us have deemed[00:00:54]
To fight from Tipperary mountains high[00:00:56]
Noble men with wills of iron[00:00:58]
Who are not afraid to die[00:01:00]
And who'll fight with[00:01:02]
Gaelic honor held on high[00:01:03]
A curse upon you Oliver Cromwell [00:01:06]
You who raped our Motherland[00:01:08]
I hope you're rotting down[00:01:10]
In hell for the horrors that you sent[00:01:12]
To our misfortunate forefathers[00:01:14]
Whom you robbed of their birthright[00:01:15]
"To hell or Connaught"[00:01:17]
May you burn in hell tonight[00:01:18]
Of one such man I'd like to speak [00:01:24]
A Rapparee by name and deed[00:01:26]
His family dispossessed and[00:01:28]
Slaughtered they put[00:01:29]
A price upon his head[00:01:30]
His name is known in song and story [00:01:32]
His deeds are legends still[00:01:34]
And murdered for blood money[00:01:36]
Was young Ned of the hill[00:01:38]
You have robbed our homes[00:01:39]
And fortunes even drove us[00:01:40]
From our land[00:01:42]
You tried to break our spirit[00:01:43]
But you'll never understand[00:01:45]
The love of dear old Ireland[00:01:47]
That will forge and iron will[00:01:49]
As long as there are gallant men [00:01:51]
Like young Ned of the hill[00:01:53]
A curse upon you Oliver Cromwell [00:01:58]
You who raped our Motherland[00:02:00]
I hope you're rotting down in[00:02:02]
Hell for the horrors that you sent[00:02:03]
To our misfortunate forefathers[00:02:05]
Whom you robbed of their birthright[00:02:07]
"To hell or Connaught"[00:02:09]
May you burn in hell tonight[00:02:10]
