A Song Of Liberty Song Lyrics
A Song Of Liberty by Flogging Molly Danny's in the corner and he's waiting all alone
[?] fealty he hasn't got a hope
But over on the North side it's all about to hit
No one realizes what's about to happen here
Mary's in familiar ways about to drop a kid
Her old man sipping gravy from an empty biscuit tin
The brotherhood are gathered, they're fated to appear
The citizens divided, only want us to be heard
But there was Clarke, James Connolly, Plunkett and Pearse
Ceannt, MacDonagh, Diarmada had no fear
Volunteers together, insurrection they believed
Could be the only answer, oh, to hear our nation sing
This is a song of liberty
Yeah, together rise in unity
One man falls, united we shall be
This is a song of liberty
The casualties were mounting out inside the GPO
There was nothing left but rubble with the burning and the smoke
Kilmainham may be waiting, their fate against the wall
Execute their empty body, all you did was free our souls
This is a song of liberty
Yeah, together rise in unity
One man falls, united we shall be
This is a song of liberty
A song of liberty
A song of liberty
A song of liberty
This is a song of liberty
Liberty
So the next time you drink a porter from your comfy armchair
Don't forget the men and women, 'twas their blood for you they shed
Remember dear old Danny and Mary with her brood
Don't take their life for granted, it was all they ever knew
But there was Clarke, James Connolly, Plunkett and Pearse
Ceannt, MacDonagh, Diarmada had no fear
Volunteers together, surrender they believed
Could be the only answer, oh, to hear our nation sing
This is a song of liberty
Yeah, together rise in unity
One man falls, united we shall be, yeah
This is a song of liberty
Yeah, together rise in unity
One man falls, united we shall be
This is a song of liberty
Liberty
Liberty
Liberty
By its valor and discipline and by the readiness of its children
To sacrifice themselves for the common good you
