the men of no property - the great eel robbery كلمات أغنية

come all you gallant ulstermen
and listen what i say
i was a hardworking fisherman
from the shores of sweet lough neagh
my father dished the deep at doss
and knew it’s rocky shores
but i have lost my livelihood
and cannot fish no more

the cruel decision the judges made
in belfast town one day
caused woe and misery for the fishers
of lough neagh
the decision that those judges made
our fishing then was doomed
when they found in favor of the men
from the fishеries at toome

now we contеnd king charles gave away
what was not his own
a gift that scheming lawyers traced
to the fishery at toome
they’ve stolen away what should belong
to each and every man
and for our fate cruel england’s law
well, she does not give one d_mn
they called our fishing poaching
and they held us up to scorn
even though it was a heritage
to which we all were born
the waters of lough neagh we fished
as our fathers did before
but because of the toome eel fishery
we cannot fish no more

for they have a great monopoly
that stretches europe round
from baltic, scandinavia
even to our own lough erne
they now control the markets and
the prices that you pay
for nature’s bounteous harvest
of our inland sea, lough neagh

but though we’ve had a setback
the decision we’ll reverse
for irishmen they must possess
what is given them by birth
we’ll smash that great monopoly
on lough neagh’s rocky shore
and irishmen will gain their right
to fish there evermore

- the men of no property
