[Chorus]
Sad are three homes in Belfast now,
All Ireland shares their sorrow,
Mairéad Farrell, Seán Savage and Daniel McCann,
They died on the streets of Gibraltar.
[Verse]
They flew out of Belfast, with an ambitious plan,
To continue the struggle to free Ireland,
Mairéad Farrell, Seán Savage and Daniel McCann,
And they died on the streets of Gibraltar.
[Chorus]
And sad are three homes in Belfast now,
All Ireland shares their sorrow,
As they walked in the sun, the Brits drew their guns,
And blood stained the streets of Gibraltar.
[Verse]
The SAS stood there so proud of their deed,
Three more freedom fighters lay dead in the street,
They'd been given no warning, no chance to retreat,
For three had to die in Gibraltar.
[Chorus]
And sad are three homes in Belfast now,
All Ireland shares their sorrow,
As they walked in the sun, hidden Brits drew their guns,
And blood stained the streets of Gibraltar.
