The Patriot Game - Bogside Volunteers[00:00:00]

Come all you young rebels[00:00:01]

And list while I sing[00:00:06]

For love of one's country is a terrible thing[00:00:10]

It banishes fear with the speed of a flame[00:00:19]

And it makes you all part of the patriot game[00:00:27]

My name is O'Hanlon[00:00:36]

And I've just gone sixteen[00:00:41]

My home is in Monaghan that's where I was weaned[00:00:45]

I've been turned all my life injustice to blame[00:00:53]

So now I'm a part of the patriot game[00:01:02]

It's barely two years since I wandered away[00:01:11]

With the local battalion of the bold IRA[00:01:20]

I've read of our heroes[00:01:29]

And I wanted the same[00:01:33]

To play out my part in the patriot game[00:01:38]

This Ireland of ours has for long been half free[00:01:47]

Six counties are under John Bull's tyranny[00:01:56]

And most of our leaders are greatly to blame[00:02:05]

For feeling their part in the Patriot game[00:02:14]

They told me how Connolly was shot in the chair[00:02:23]

His wounds from the fighting all bloody and bare[00:02:32]

His fine body twisted all battered and lame[00:02:41]

And that made me part of the patriot game[00:02:50]

And now as I lie here my body all holed[00:03:00]

I think of those traitors who bargained in souls[00:03:09]

And I'm started my rifle has not the same[00:03:18]

To the Quislings who sold out the patriot game[00:03:27]
