The Crazy Rogues - Black 'n' Tans Lyrics
Official




I was born on a Dublin street where the Royal drums did beat
And the loving English feet they walked all over us
And every single night when mi father came home tight
He'd invite the neighbours outside with this chorus
Oh, come out ye' black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you got medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra
Come let us hear you tell
How you slandered great Parnell
When you fought them well and truly persecuted
Where are the smears and jeers
That you bravery let us hear
When our leaders of sixteen were executed
Oh, come out ye' black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra
Come tell us how you slew
Them brave Arabs two by two
Like Zulus they had spears and bows and arrows
How you'd slew each one
With your sixteen pounder gun
And you frightened them pour damn natives to their marrow
Oh, come out ye' black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you got medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes if Killashandra
Oh, come out ye' black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you got medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra
Oh, come out ye' black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you got medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra
