Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

In Dublin town they sing of a brave Wicklow woman
\nOf her troubles and her times in cruel Kilmainham Jail
\nAll the way from Butterfield Lane Anne Devlin was her name
\nA friend to Robert Emmett she served his cause in vain<\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nLo lie lo Liffey keep on flowin’
\nAnd it’s lo lie lo Anne your legend’s growin’<\/p>\n

Not torture or the bribe could sway Anne Devlin’s purpose
\nThree years of lonely hell in solitary shame
\nHow proud Emmett met his fate on the scaffold of the tyrant
\nShe saw her family passin’ like poor lilies in the storm<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

In 1851 Anne Devlin met her maker
\nBut her story’s with us still as a lesson for the wise
\nNot poverty or fear can kill the heart of freedom
\nAnne Devlin was a servant to the spirit of our land<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
