Oh I am a merry ploughboy and I plough the fields all day
Till a sudden thought came to my mind that I should run away
Well I've always hated slavery since the day that I was born
So I am off to join the I.R.A. I am off tomorrow morn.
And we're all off to Dublin in the green, in the green
Where the helmets glisten in the sun
Where the bay'nets flash the riffles crash
To the rattle of a Thompson gun.
I'll leave aside me pick and spade, and I'll leave aside me plough
I'll leave aside my old grey mare, for no more I need them now
And I'll leave aside my Mary, she's the girl that I adore
Well I wonder if she'll think of me when she hears the cannons roar.
And we're all off to Dublin in the green, in the green
Where the helmets glisten in the sun
Where the bay'nets flash the riffles crash
To the rattle of a Thompson gun.
And when this war is over, and dear old Ireland's free
I'll take her to the church to wed and a rebel's wife she'll be
Well some men they fight for silver and some men fight for gold
But the I.R.A. are fighting for the land that that England stole.
And we're all off to Dublin in the green, in the green
Where the helmets glisten in the sun
Where the bay'nets flash and the riffles crash
To the rattle of a Thompson gun.
