Irish Ways and Irish Laws |
| Once upon a time there were |
| Irish Ways and Irish Laws |
| Villages of Irish blood |
| Waking to the morning |
| Waking to the morning |
| Then the Vikings came around |
| Turned us up and turned us down |
| Started building boats and towns |
| They tried to change our living |
| tried to change our living |
| Cromwell and his soldiers came |
| Started centuries of shame |
| But they could not make us turn |
| We are a river flowing |
| We’re a river flowing |
| Again, again the soldiers came |
| Burnt our houses stole our grain |
| Shot the farmers in their fields |
| Working for livings |
| Working for a living |
| 800 years we have been down |
| The secret of the water sound |
| Has kept the spirit of a man |
| Above the pain descending |
| Above the pain descending |
| Today the struggle carries on |
| I wonder will I live so long |
| To see the gates being opened up |
| To a people and their freedom |
| A people and their freedom |
| Once upon a time there was |
| Irish Ways and Irish Laws |
| Villages of Irish blood |
| Waking to the morning |
| Waking to the morning |
