Irish Republican Jail Song (Ireland's Fight For Fr

Note:I am unsure of the lyrics to verse 2. If they are wrong, please contact me.

Chorus:
In Ireland's fight for freedom, boys, the north has played its part
For freedom's day has still to dawn, we've never yet lost heart!
We'll fight it out until the end – we'll fight for we cannot fail,
We know we'll win, although they have our lads in Crumlin jail.

We give to Ireland Owen Roe,
We give them Shane O'Neill,
And Tone and Mitchell made a vow,
That England still would yield,
McKelvey did not die in vain,

He was a Northern Gael
And there's another reason why they keep our lads in Crumlin jail.

So keep on the fight, you volunteers, for God is on our side.
No jail can break our brave young men, no prison clamp their pride.
For England knows, and England hates, our fearless northern gales;
Sure there's another reason why we'll free our lads from Crumlin jail.

For England knows, and England hates, our fearless northern gales;
Sure there's another reason why we'll free our lads from Crumlin jail.
