Paddy and the Rats "William" Songtext

William

We were sent to warIn the name of St. PatrickThe army of the Green Land,The Irish CatholicsWe came for King JamesFear no one in this worldLight a fire, now it’s time,Let the orange flags burn!

William, we never surrenderWilliam , we never surrenderWilliam, we never surrenderThe Irish will always survive

The English came acrossTo stole our lands awayThey even tried to force usTo leave our ancient wayThey destroyed the crossOf the church of St. PatrickPuritans, protestants really made us sick!

The English lords were cruelThey were flogging Irish backsOur people died of hungerOr left our holy landQueen Lizzy and CromwellBrought us pain and deathPuritans, protestants, we send you back in hell!

The blood is greenThat’s running through our veinsYou’d better screamWhen our cavalry appearsyou see us ridethe last thing you seeCannon fire, people die, we throw you in the sea!
