Pogues - Young Ned Of The Hill Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Have you ever walked the lonesome hills
  • And heard the curlews cry
  • Or seen the raven black as night
  • Upon a windswept sky
  • To walk the purple heather
  • And hear the westwind cry
  • To know that's where the rapparee must die
  • Since cromwell pushed us westward
  • To live our lowly lives
  • There's some of us have deemed to fight
  • From tipperary mountains high
  • Noble men with wills of iron
  • Who are not afraid to die
  • Who'll fight with gaelic honour held on high
  • A curse upon you oliver cromwell
  • You who raped our motherland
  • I hope you're rotting down in hell
  • For the horrors that you sent
  • To our misfortunate forefathers
  • Whom you robbed of their birthright
  • "to hell or connaught" may you burn in hell tonight
  • Of one such man i'd like to speak
  • A rapparee by name and deed
  • His family dispossessed and slaughtered
  • They put a price upon his head
  • His name is known in song and story
  • His deeds are legends still
  • And murdered for blood money
  • Was young ned of the hill
  • A curse upon you oliver cromwell
  • You who raped our motherland
  • I hope you're rotting down in hell
  • For the horrors that you sent
  • To our misfortunate forefathers
  • Whom you robbed of their birthright
  • "to hell or connaught" may you burn in hell tonight
  • You have robbed our homes and fortunes
  • Even drove us from our land
  • You tried to break our spirit
  • But you'll never understand
  • The love of dear old ireland
  • That will forge an iron will
  • As long as there are gallant men
  • Like young ned of the hill
