Give Ireland Back To The Irish

Give Ireland back to the Irish

Don't make them have to take it away

Give Ireland back to the Irish

Make Ireland Irish today

Great Britain, you are tremendous

And nobody knows like me

But really, what are you doin'

In that land across the sea?

Tell me, how would you like it, if on your way to work

You were stopped by Irish soldiers

Would you lie down, do nothing?

Would you give in or go berserk?

Give Ireland back to the Irish

Don't make them have to take it away

Give Ireland back to the Irish

Make Ireland Irish today

Great Britain and all the people

Say that all people must be free

Meanwhile, back in Ireland

There's a man who looks like me

And he dreams of God and country, and he's feelin' really bad

And he's sittin' in a prison

Should he lie down and do nothing?

Should he give in or go mad?

Give Ireland back to the Irish

Don't make them have to take it away

Give Ireland back to the Irish

Make Ireland Irish today

Give Ireland back to the Irish

Don't make them have to take it away

Give Ireland back to the Irish

Make Ireland Irish today, yeah, yeah

Everybody
