Lyrics:
I am a merry ploughboy and I ploughed the fields all day Till a sudden thought Came into my head That I should roam away For I'm tired of civilian life Since the day that I was born So I'm off to join the I.R.A. And I'm off tomorrow morn [CHORUS] So we're off to Dublin' In the green, in the green Where the helmets Glisten in the sun Where the bayonets flash And the rifles crash to the Echo of a Thompson Gun Oh, I leave behind My old gray home I leave behind my plough And I leave behind My old gray mare For no more I'll need 'em now And I leave behind my Mary She's the one that I adore And I wonder will She think of me when she Hears the rifles roar [Repeat CHORUS] Oh, some men fight for silver And some men fight for gold But the I.R.A. are fighting for The land the Saxons stole [Repeat CHORUS] And when the war is over And dear old Ireland's free I will take her to the church to wed A rebel's wife she'll be [Repeat CHORUS]
