Men Behine the Wire |
Armoured cars and tanks and guns |
Came to take away our sons |
But every man must stand behind |
The men behind the wire |
Through the little streets of Belfast |
In the dark of early morn |
British soldiers came marauding |
Wrecking little homes with scorn |
Heedless of the crying children |
Cragging fathers from their beds |
Beating sons while helpless mothers |
Watched the blood poor from their heads |
Not for them a judge and jury |
Nor indeed a trial at all |
But being Irish means you’re guilty |
So we’re guilty one and all |
Round the world the truth will echo |
Cromwell’s men are here again |
England’s name again is sullied |
In the eyes of honest men |
Proud we march behind our banner |
Firm we’ll stand behind our men |
We will have them free to help us |
Build a nation once again |
