Lyrics without the chords
In Ireland’s fight for freedom many men have fallen
Their lifes given proudly for the cause
Those gallant lifes given for their country
And to you now their story I will tell
Chorus
Won’t you sing them a song
Sing a lullaby to heaven
Let your comrades all (know) you understand
Won’t you sing them a song
Sing a lullaby to heaven
Let our lads and lassies all sing along
(That our lads and lassies will sing along)
Remember Peter Cleary and Fergal Caraher
Both were murdered by the forces of the crown
We’ll speak with pride of Jim Lochrie and Sean Campbell
In South Armagh these gallant men did dwell
Chorus
In North Armagh remember McIlvenna,
Crossey, Burns, Toman and McKerr
And from Tyrone McKearney, Cauly and Caughy
McNally, Ryan, Tony Doris, too
Chorus
Remember Pat Kelly and Jim Bryson,
Skipper Burns, Sean Savage and Billy Reid
These men all hail from the gallant Belfast battalion
So many more I cannot them all name
Chorus
Let’s not forget the girls who died for Ireland
Petticrew, FitzSimmons and Mairie Drumm
From Portadown came young Julie Dougan
Mairead Farrell in Gibraltar made her stand
In Ireland’s fight for freedom many men have fallen
Their lifes given proudly for the cause
Those gallant lifes given for their country
And to you now their story I will tell
Chorus
Won’t you sing them a song
Sing a lullaby to heaven
Let your comrades all (know) you understand
Won’t you sing them a song
Sing a lullaby to heaven
Let our lads and lassies all sing along
(That our lads and lassies will sing along)
Remember Peter Cleary and Fergal Caraher
Both were murdered by the forces of the crown
We’ll speak with pride of Jim Lochrie and Sean Campbell
In South Armagh these gallant men did dwell
Chorus
In North Armagh remember McIlvenna,
Crossey, Burns, Toman and McKerr
And from Tyrone McKearney, Cauly and Caughy

Chorus
Remember Pat Kelly and Jim Bryson,
Skipper Burns, Sean Savage and Billy Reid
These men all hail from the gallant Belfast battalion
So many more I cannot them all name
Chorus
Let’s not forget the girls who died for Ireland
Petticrew, FitzSimmons and Mairie Drumm
From Portadown came young Julie Dougan
Mairead Farrell in Gibraltar made her stand
