[Verse]
In Belfast streets I heard it said,
They're shooting little children dead,
Taking life that's what they done,
With plastic bullets from their guns.

[Chorus]
Ah, we won't be kept down easily,
We will not be still,
We won't be kept down easily,
After all they maimed and killed.

[Verse]
Young Carol Ann just 12 years of age,
Shot down by Brits in bloody rage,
Wee Julie Livingstone as well,
Fell victim to their, plastic hell.

[Chorus]
Ah, we won't be kept down easily,
We will not be still,
We won't be kept down easily,
After all they maimed and killed.

[Verse]
They tried to drag us from our streets,
By taking lives so young and sweet,
Do they not know, we'll not be beat,
Their violence is their own defeat.

[Chorus]
Ah, we won't be kept down easily,
We will not be still,
We won't be kept down easily,
After all they maimed and killed.

[Verse]
They try to make us toe their line,
By using every type of crime,
But freedom won't be terrorised,
But our freedom struggles criminalised.

[Chorus]
Ah, we won't be kept down easily,
We will not be still,
We won't be kept down easily,
After all they maimed and killed.

[Chorus]
Ah, we won't be kept down easily,
We will not be still,
We won't be kept down easily,
After all they maimed and killed.
After all they maimed and killed.
