Chorus:
In Irelands fight for freedom, boys, the north has played its part
For freedoms day has still to dawn, weve never yet lost heart!
Well fight it out until the end well fight for we cannot fail,
We know well win, although they have our lads in Crumlin jail.
We gave to Erin Eoin Row, we gave her Shane O Neill,
And Tone and Cavehill made a vow that England still can fail.
Joe McKelvey did not die in vain; he was our northern gale,
And theres another reason why they keep our lads in Crumlin jail.
So keep on the fight, you volunteers, for God is on our side.
No jail can break our brave young men, no prison clamp their pride.
For England knows, and England hates, our fearless northern gales;
Sure theres another reason why well free our lads from Crumlin jail.
For England knows, and England hates, our fearless northern gales;
Sure theres another reason why well free our lads from Crumlin jail.
