Dubliners - Off to Dublin in the Green 1973

I am a merry ploughboy

and I ploughed the fields all day

'Till a sudden thought came to my mind

that I should roam away

I'm sick and tired of slavery

since the day that I was born

And I'm off to join the I.R.A.

and I'm off tomorrow morn.

And we're off to Dublin in the green, in the green

Where the helmets glisten in the sun

Where the bayonets flash and the rifles crash

To the rattle of the Thompson Gun.

I'll leave aside my pick and spade

I'll leave aside me plough

I'll leave aside me horse and yoke

for no more I'll need them now

And I'll leave aside my Mary

she's the girl I do adore

And I wonder will she think of me

when she hears the rifles roar

And we're off to Dublin in the green, in the green

Where the helmets glisten in the sun

Where the bayonets flash and the rifles crash

To the rattle of the Thompson Gun.

And when the war is over

and old Ireland she is free

I will take her to the church to wed

and a rebels wife she'll be.

Well, some men fight for silver

and some men fight for gold

But the IRA are fighting for

the land that the Freestaters stole

And we're all off to Dublin in the green, in the green

Where the helmets glisten in the sun

Where the bayonets flash and the rifles crash

To the rattle of a Thompson gun
