The Patriot Game
Come all ye young rebels, and list while I sing, For the love of one's country is a terrible thing It banishes fear with the speed of a flame, And it makes you all part of the patriot game
My name is O'Hanlon, and I've just gone sixteen My home is in Monaghan, and there I was weaned I was taught all my life cruel England's to blame, So now I am part of the patriot game
It's barely two years since I wandered away With the local battalion of the bold IRA, For I read of our heroes, and wanted the same To play out my part in the patriot game

They told of how Connolly was shot in his chair, The wounds from the fighting all bloody and bare His fine body twisted, all battered and lame And they soon made me part of the patriot game
And now I am dying, my body all holes I think of those traitors who bargained in souls I am sorry my rifle has not done the same To those traitors who sold out the patriot game
