Testo Barry's Column - Wolfhound
Testo della canzone Barry's Column (Wolfhound), tratta dall'album Patriotic Names
From east to west, from north to south
They tried to hunt the column out
But the Tans were forced to go without
The boys of Barry's column
In armoured cars they came to stay
And wiped the Irish cowards away
But oh the lovely holiday
Was stopped by Barry's column
Oh but isn't it great to see
The Tommies and the RIC
The Black and Tans and the Staters flee
Away from Barry's column
Lloyd George might have some wily tricks
On how the volunteers to fix
Yet all his Black and Tans grew sick
When they think of Barry's column
His prisons come in red and black
Though tanks or war equipment lack
Yet o'er the sea they'd ne'er get back
If caught by Barry's column
Oh but isn't it great to see
The Tommies and the RIC
The Black and Tans and the Staters flee
Away from Barry's column
Along the lonely road they wind
Armed in front and armed behind
"We're sorry but that bridge was mine"
Said the lads of Barry's column
They stopped to rest just for a spell
Some hand grenades upon them fell
"Here show them out among yourselves"
Said the lads from Barry's column
Oh but isn't it great to see
The Staters and the RIC
The Tommies and the Tans all flee
Away from Barry's column
Oh but isn't it great to see
The Tommies and the RIC
The Black and Tans and the Staters flee
Away from Barry's column
