(Fighting Men From Crossmaglen)
[Chorus]
In Crossmaglen, the fire burns true,
The patriotic flame will never die, (Will never die!)
And when you'll hear the battle cry,
It will be the fighting men of Crossmaglen.
[Verse]
I'll sing a song of those bravest men,
That famous fighting unit from Armagh,
They are the men of Crossmaglen,
Among the bravest Ireland ever saw. (Where!)
[Chorus]
In Crossmaglen, the fire burns true,
The patriotic flame will never die, (Will never die!)
And when you'll hear the battle cry,
It will be the fighting men of Crossmaglen.
(Take It Down From The Mast)
[Chorus]
Oh, take it down from the mast, Irish traitors,
It's flag we Republicans claim,
It can never belong to Free Staters,
You have brought on it nothing but shame.
[Verse]
Well leave it to those who are willing,
To uphold it in war and in peace,
The men who intend to do killing,
Until England's tyranny cease.
[Chorus]
Oh, take it down from the mast, Irish traitors,
It's flag we Republicans claim,
It can never belong to Free Staters,
You have brought on it nothing but shame.
(Crumlin Gaol)
In Ireland's fight for freedom, boys,
The North has played it's part,
Though freedom's day has still to dawn,
We've never yet lost heart,
We'll fight it out until the end,
We'll fight for we cannot fail,
And that's another reason why,
We'll free out lads, in a H-Block cell.
Keep on the fight, you volunteers,
For God is on our side.
No jail can break our brave young men.
No prison can damp their pride,
And England knows and England fears,
Our famous Northern Gael,
And that's another reason why,
We'll free out lads, in a H-Block cell.
In Ireland's fight for freedom, boys,
The North has played it's part,
Though freedom's day has still to dawn,
We've never yet lost heart,
We'll fight it out until the end,
We'll fight for we cannot fail,
And that's another reason why,
We'll free out lads, in a H-Block cell.
And that's another reason why,
We'll free out lads, in a H-Block cell.
And that's another reason why,
We'll free out lads, in a H-Block cell.
And that's another reason why,
We'll free out lads, in a H-Block cell.
And that's another reason why,
We'll free out lads, in a H-Block.
