Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today

Great Britain you are tremendous and nobody knows like me
But really what are you doing in the land across the sea
Tell me how would you like it if on your way to work
You were stopped by Irish soldiers
Would you lie down do nothing
Would you give in, go berserk

Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today

Great Britain an dall the people said that people must be free
And meanwhile back in Ireland there's a man who looks like me
And he dreams of God and country and he's feeling really bad
And he's sitting in a prison
Say, should he lie down do nothing
Should he behave like a man

Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today

Give Ireland back to the Irish ....
