fuck england !!!!! ireland will prevail and take northern ireland back!!

[Stonegolem42]

Yeah . . . that's not what the song is about.

[wingzero890]

This song is so sad and true. The lessons of the past are all learned with workers blood, the mistakes of the bosses they paid for.

[balfnet]

A superb version.

[jackcallan106]

Thanx for the post.Behan was to the Dubliners what McClure was to the Doors

I've only heard this by Christy Moore before, and then under the name of "Paddy on the Road". Nice to see a Ronnie-version of it as well!
