[Verse]
You started this fight but with all of your might,
You can't seem to finish the job,
You didn't count on the folks who went out,
And started the first Irish mob.
A martyr has soul, a passion, and a goal,
And the whole world will soon know your light,
And in the end, you'll find out, my friend,
That the Irish will always look you in the eye.
[Chorus]
Oh, tiocfaidh ár lá, that's what we say,
A simple little song, we sing every day,
We won't stop believing, you won't see no fear in our eyes.
Our day will come, there is no doubt,
There's only one way we want you and that way is out,
Tiocfaidh ár lá, we love you, Erin Go Bragh.
[Verse]
The innocent who paid day after day,
Through the famine you caused in our land,
Circle the globe so the truth sang or told,
Will be one truth with all understand.
Tables always turn, and Rome surely burned,
And your empire is gone now at last,
Now how does it feel to have no friends who're real?
Now it's your turn to live with your flag at half-mast.
[Chorus]
Oh, tiocfaidh ár lá, that's what we say,
A simple little song, we sing every day,
We won't stop believing, you won't see no fear in our eyes.
Our day will come, there is no doubt,
There's only one way we want you and that way is out,
Tiocfaidh ár lá, we love you, Erin Go Bragh.
[Verse]
To the Seminole Indians, thank you, my friends,
For sending the Irish your food
To the English who kept it, I won't swear in this song,
Let's just say you'll never be no good.
You just can't be trusted, your word's not your bond,
And folks who believe you are fools!
Because you'll get in bed, say what needs to be said,
If it works in that moment in history for you.
[Chorus]
Oh, tiocfaidh ár lá, that's what we say,
A simple little song, we sing every day,
We won't stop believing, you won't see no fear in our eyes.
Our day will come, there is no doubt,
There's only one way we want you and that way is out,
Tiocfaidh ár lá, we love you, Erin Go Bragh.
[Outro]
Our day will come, there is no doubt,
There's only one way we want you and that way is out,
Tiocfaidh ár lá, we love you, Erin Go Bragh,
Tiocfaidh ár lá, we love you, Erin Go Bragh.
