My Little Armalite Songtext

von The Irish Brigade

And it's down along the Falls Road is where i long to be
Lying the dark with a provo company
A comrade on me left and another one on me right
And a clip of ammunition for me little armalite
I was stopped by a soldier he said you are a swine
He hit me with his rifle and he kicked me in the groin
I begged and I pleaded oh my manners were polite
But all the time I'm thinking of me little armalite
Oh it's down in the bogside is where I long to be
Lying the dark with a provo company
A comrade on me left and another on me right
And a clip of ammunition for me little armalite
Well this brave RUC man came marching up our street
600 british soldiers he had lined up at his feet
Come out ye cowardly fenians
Come on out and fight
He cried I'm only joking when he heard the armalite
Oh it's down in bellaghy is where I long to be
Lying in the dark with a provo company
A comrade on me left and another one on me right
And a clip of ammunition for me little armalite
Sure, the army came to visit me, 'twas in the early hours,
With Saladins and Saracens and Ferret armoured cars
They thought they had me cornered, but I gave them all a fright
With the armour piercing bullets of my little Armalite.
And it's down in the New Lodge is where I long to be
Lying in the dark with a provo company
A comrade on me left and another on me right
And a clip of ammunition for me little armalite
When when Frier came to Belfast to see the battles won
The generals they had told him, we've got them on the run
But Corporals and Privates while on patrol at night
Say watch out for narrow waters and the bloody armalite
And it's down in Crossmaglen is where I long to be
Lying the dark with a provo company
A comrade on me left and another on me right
And a clip of ammunition for me little armalite.
