《Never Beat the Irish》歌词

[00:00:00] Never Beat the Irish - Wolfe Tones

[00:00:28] In eleven sixty seven

[00:00:29] They came to Ireland on the make

[00:00:32] They were followed by invasions

[00:00:34] And by conquests in their wake

[00:00:36] The Kings and Queens of England

[00:00:38] Made the land a battleground

[00:00:41] They took the land by fraud defeat;

[00:00:43] By murder poison and deceit

[00:00:45] Murder plunder fallaballa clear the way

[00:00:48] Cheating stealing diddly idel day

[00:00:50] Ducking diving fallaballa clear the way

[00:00:52] Diddly aidel doh diddly aidel day

[00:00:59] Then by the fifteenth century

[00:01:00] They held precariously to the Pale

[00:01:03] The invaders were more Irish

[00:01:05] Than the Irish that's the tale

[00:01:07] A fat greedy king

[00:01:08] Called Henry 's dick was bigger than his brain

[00:01:12] Imposed a reformation confiscating usurpation

[00:01:16] And You'll never beat the Irish

[00:01:20] No matter what you do

[00:01:25] You can put us down and keep us out

[00:01:30] But we'll come back again

[00:01:33] You know we are the fighting Irish

[00:01:38] And we'll fight until the end

[00:01:42] You know you should have known

[00:01:46] You'll never beat the Irish

[00:02:21] The virgin Queen Elizabeth

[00:02:23] Brought more turmoil to our land

[00:02:25] She decimated Munster

[00:02:26] Scorched the earth and all at hand

[00:02:30] Then James the first and Charles

[00:02:31] The Mad brought out other greedy bands

[00:02:34] They took the land of Ulster

[00:02:36] Killed their Chieftains poisoned plundered

[00:02:39] Murder plunder fallaballa clear the way

[00:02:41] Cheating stealing diddly idel day

[00:02:43] Ducking diving fallaballa clear the way

[00:02:45] Diddly aidel doh diddly aidel day

[00:02:52] And by defective titles

[00:02:54] They cheated Connaught and the west

[00:02:56] Across the seventeenth century

[00:02:59] From war we had no rest

[00:03:01] For the curse of Cromwell plagued the land

[00:03:03] 'Til our towns were red with blood

[00:03:05] Then the Battle of the Boyne was fought by William

[00:03:08] James and foreign hoards

[00:03:10] You'll never beat the Irish no matter what you do

[00:03:18] You can put us down and keep us out

[00:03:23] But we'll come back again

[00:03:27] You know we are the fighting Irish

[00:03:31] And we'll fight until the end

[00:03:36] You know you should have known

[00:03:38] You'll never beat the Irish

[00:03:43] Murder plunder fallaballa clear the way

[00:03:45] Cheating stealing diddly idel day

[00:03:47] Ducking diving fallaballa clear the way

[00:03:50] Diddly aidel doh diddly aidel day

[00:03:52] Murder plunder fallaballa clear the way

[00:03:54] Cheating stealing diddly idel day

[00:03:56] Ducking diving fallaballa clear the way

[00:03:59] Diddly aidel doh diddly aidel day
