The Patriot Game - Patsy Watchorn[00:00:00]

Come all you young rebels [00:00:08]

And list while I sing [00:00:12]

For the love of one's country[00:00:15]

Is a terrible thing [00:00:19]

It banishes fear with[00:00:22]

The speed of a flame [00:00:25]

And it makes us[00:00:29]

All part of the patriot game [00:00:30]

My name is On Hanlon [00:00:37]

And I've just turned sixteen [00:00:40]

My home is in Monaghan [00:00:43]

And where I was weaned[00:00:47]

I learned all my life[00:00:50]

Cruel England's to blame [00:00:53]

So now I am part of the patriot game [00:00:58]

It's nearly two years[00:01:05]

Since I wandered away[00:01:07]

With the local battalion[00:01:12]

Of the bold IRA [00:01:15]

For I read of our heroes [00:01:19]

And wanted the same[00:01:22]

So now I'm my part[00:01:26]

In the patriot game [00:01:29]

This Ireland of ours has[00:01:33]

Too long been half free [00:01:37]

Six counties lie[00:01:40]

Under John Bull's tyranny [00:01:42]

I'm still De Valera is greatly to blame[00:01:47]

For shirking his part in the Patriot game [00:01:54]

They told me how Connolly[00:02:02]

Was shot in his chair [00:02:05]

His wounds from the fighting[00:02:08]

All bloody and bare [00:02:12]

His fine body twisted [00:02:16]

All battered and lame[00:02:19]

For playing his part[00:02:23]

Of the patriot game [00:02:26]

And now as I lie here [00:02:30]

My body all holes[00:02:34]

I think of those traitors[00:02:37]

Who bargained in souls[00:02:41]

And I wish that my rifle had given the same[00:02:44]

To those Quislings[00:02:51]

Who sold out the patriot game [00:02:52]

To those Quislings[00:02:58]

Who sold out the patriot game[00:03:00]
