seamus harvey and gerard mcglynn - the irish brigade lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
farewell to séamus harvey; goodbye to gerard mcglynn
i hope you’re both in heaven, for you did not die in vain
while trying to free your country, your young lives were blown away
but if ever i get to heaven, i will meet you there one day

they saw a lot of action, and true courage they did show
‘gainst the occupation forces of the cruel british foe
laying mines along the border in the county of tyrone
and never did these comrades evеr fail to hold their own
[chorus]
farewell to séamus harvеy; goodbye to gerard mcglynn
i hope you’re both in heaven, for you did not die in vain
while trying to free your country, your young lives were blown away
but if ever i get to heaven, i will meet you there one day

that fateful night in august, in the year of ’73
they said farewell to loved ones they were never more to see
as they moved towards their target along that border road
their bomb was primed and ready but too early did explode

i’ll tell you where it happened — at the customs at kilclean
and please god, upon that spot there may a cross one day be seen
dedicated to those young men of the west tyrone command
who fight to raise the green flag and to free their native land

[chorus]
farewell to séamus harvey; goodbye to gerard mcglynn
i hope you’re both in heaven, for you did not die in vain
while trying to free your country, your young lives were blown away
but if ever i get to heaven, i will meet you there one day
but if ever i get to heaven, i will meet you there one day
