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

Bobby Sands was his name, He Died for the cause of Freedom
\nA hunger strike they commenced, To fight for the right as Freemen
\nIn the Summer of 81′ Ten brave men, the Crown they took on
\nThe ten were prisoners of war…But Englands leaders let them die one by one
\nThe year they murdered Ten Brave men, and the Black flags were flying’
\nThe Year they murdered Ten Brave men, and all the people were crying’ They sang<\/p>\n

“Lord we have lost our son’s, now we’ll make sure this war is won”<\/p>\n

Bobby was elected MP, and one day he said to me,
\n“People must fight for the right to live in a land thats free”
\nI Got 14 years in Jail, and this hunger strike it must not fail.
\nThe English we’ll alway’s detest, but they should never have taken the very best.<\/p>\n

CHORUS:
\nThe year they murdered Ten Brave men, and the Black flags were flying’
\nThe Year they murdered Ten Brave men, and all the people were crying’ They sang
\n“Lord we have lost our son’s, now we’ll make sure this war is won”<\/p>\n

CHORUS<\/p>\n

Like His father before him, He was a workin’ man
\nLike his Comrades beside him, He took a Rebel stand
\nHe was a Rebel, proud and brave, but Thatcher laid him in his grave
\nI swear by the blood in my vains, The Irish people will someday have their say.<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

The year they murdered Ten Brave men, and the Black flags were flying’
\nThe Year they murdered Ten Brave men, and all the people were crying’ They sang,
\n“Lord we have lost our son’s, now we’ll make sure this war is won”<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
