the men of no property - paddy reilly كلمات أغنية

well, have you heard the story
that is going round today
for me good mate paddy reilly
up and joined the ira
and he’s off with a riffle in his hand
and he’s fighting with that gallant band
they’re fighting for the freedom of the people

he wears no fancy uniform
he learnt no clever drill
but he trained with his riffle
and he uses it to k!ll
and he moves with the cunning of a fox
he’s firing lead, no longer rocks
well, here’s to the men like paddy reilly

he used to work on a building site
he was shop steward there
now there’s a ban on overtime
so he’s got time to spare
and so he’s learned a different trade
and when the army makes a raid
they have to face the men like paddy reilly

he doesn’t care who fought for what
at the battle of the boyne
but he knows what it’s like to live
on the falls road and ardoyne
for religion’s not his cup of tea
but he’s got a thing about liberty
fighting now for freedom, paddy reilly
for liberals and moderates
he does not give a straw
they let us rot for fifty years
and said, now keep the law
they say, now wait another hundred years
and help to allay these right_wing fears
crawl back in your gutter, paddy reilly

but paddy now is off his knees
and standing on his feet
and the people there behind him
weave an empire’s winding sheet
for dodging among the tanks and cars
he whiles away the night time hours
planting bombs for freedom, paddy reilly

- the men of no property
