James Connolly |
| Where oh where is our James Connolly? |
| Where oh where is that gallant man? |
| He is gone to organise the union |
| That working men they may yet be free |
| Oh who then who will lead the van? |
| Oh who then who will lead the van? |
| Who but our James Connolly |
| The hero of the working man |
| Who will carry high the burning flag? |
| Who will carry high the burning flag? |
| Who but our James Connolly |
| Could carry high the burning flag |
| They carried him up to the jail |
| They carried him up to the jail |
| And they shot him down on a bright May morning |
| And quickly laid him in his grave |
| Who mourns the death of this great man? |
| Who mourns the death of this great man? |
| Oh bury me down in yon green garden |
| With union men on every side |
| So they buried him down in yon green garden |
| With union men on every side |
| They swore they would form a mighty union |
| That James Connolly’s name might be filled with pride |
| Where oh where is our James Connolly? |
| Where oh where is that gallant man? |
| He is gone to organise the Union |
| That working men they may yet be free |
