This track is not by Wolfhound but by Blackthorn whose Man from the Daily Mail is also on YouTube. A listen to both will confirm that it is the same group. I was a member and play guitar and do supporting vocals on both tracks. And wrote the last verse of this
@PBrady111 Thanks for the right information, i uploaded the song about 2 years ago, from a cassette of different irish groups singing, two of them where Wolfound and Blackthorn, i have corrected it now, thanks again. Decky.
My mum "lullaybyed" me and my big sister with this song ~ we learned this before any nursery rhyme!! It was our first rebel tune ~ n now we know lots more. I'm only 10 but i love them.
my granny punched a soldier for shooting a dog that was barking at them. got him straight in he mouth then when they arrested her there was 4 more of us followed her into a cell.
a least we have music,instruments bands that sell gigs and tour and hit the charts,U2 John and Yoko/Dylon the pougs the wolfe tones and i could go on...take a listen 2 your own music mate! old men with organs singing crap to our tunes that are centuries old and include humour and whit....name one fuckin loyalists band that sings with real instruments and sells out gigs?
religion has 0 2 do with being a Republican my freind,Republicanism in ireland was started by Protestants with no gealic bloodline,no class or faith or race united them they were of all faiths and none as are the irish as a whole,republicans are united by the beleif those voted 4 govern and that government is 1 thing and all religions another...slan~
I used to always think that they said Green Blind Shite but that's testament to the fuckin CD player I had. But anyway, in the words of Tony Soprano, 'at least she's Catholic' xx
ur right it was just a wind up...what else do bawbags like the numpty below understand though other than like for like dumbass prejudices? im an atheist myself

As I was climbing into bed
Me poor old granny to ride
I lifted up the windae
My bum bhoy had arrived
My arse his tongue surrounded
He buggered my shitpipe in
I knew he'd come to give me
A bucket full of his jism...
