Well have you heard the story
that is going round today?
For me good mate Paddy Reilly
up and joined the IRA
and he's off with a rifle in his hand
and he's fighting will that gallant
band,they´re fighting for the freedom
of the people.
He wears no fancy uniform,
he learnt no clever drill
But he trained with his rifle
And he uses it to kill and he moves
with the cunning of a fox he´s firing lead,
No longer rocks. Well here´s to the men like
Paddy reilly
He used to work on a building site,
he was shop steward there
now there´s a ban on overtime
so he´s got time to spare.
And so he´s learned that the different trade
and when the army makes a raid
they have to face like Paddy Reilly
He dosen´t care who fought
for what at the battle of beyne.
But he knows what it´s like to
live on the Falls road and Ardoney.
For religion´s not his cup of tea,
But he got that thing about liberty
Fighting now for freedom, Paddy Reilly.
For liberals and moderates he dose
not give a straw they let ut rot for fifty years.
And said, now keep the law.
They say now wait another hundred years
and help to allay these right-wing fears.
Crawl back in your gutter, Paddy Reilly
But Paddy now is off his knees and standing
on his feet. And the people there behind him
weave and empire´s winding sheet. For dodging
among the tanks and cars he whiles away the night
time hours Planting bombs for freedom, Paddy Reilly
