[Intro]
Oh, it happened on a Sunday afternoon,
On the lovely bright crisp winters afternoon,
On the perfect day for walking.

[Verse]
There's gunshots, stones and bullets,
On the lovely bright crisp winters afternoon,
There's chaos, panic and death,
Disbelief upon the faces.

Fear and bewilderment, the seconds seemed so long
They're firing bullets at us
It was not supposed to be like this
So awesome to behold

[Chorus]
Then our minds locked shut
Then our minds locked shut
Then our minds locked shut
Then our minds locked shut
And there remains, remains

[Verse]
Jackie Duddy and Willie Nash,
Gerry Donaghy, Willy McKinney,
Gerard McKinney and Jim Wray,
Johnny Johnston, Barney McGuigan.

Paddy Doherty, Kevin McIlhenny,
John Young, Mickey Kelly,
Hugh Gilmore, Michael McDaid,
Let us remember.

[Outro]
Oh, it happened on a Sunday afternoon,
On a lovely bright crisp winters afternoon,
On the perfect day for walking.
