Sam Song

Well I have been a Provo now for 15 years or more
 with armalites and mortorbombs I thought I knew the score
 But now we have a weapon, we've never used before
 The Brits are looking worried - and their going to worry more!
 I started off with petrol bombs and throwing bricks and stones
 With a hundred more lads like me I never was alone
 But soon I learned that bricks and stones won't drive the Brits away
 It wasn't very long before I joined the IRA
 Tiocfaidh Ar La, sing Up the Ra

 Then there came Internment in the year of '71
 The Brits thought we were beaten, that we were on the run
 On that early August morning they kicked in our back door
 but for every man they took away, they missed a hundred more
 I spent eight years in the cages, I had time to think and plan
 for though they locked away a boy, I walked out a man
 and there's only one thing that I learned while in their cell I lay
 the Brits will never leave us, until they're blown away!
 Tiocfaidh Ar La, sing Up the Ra

 All through the days of hunger strike I watched my comrades die
 while in the streets of Belfast you could hear the women cry
 I can't forget the massacre that Friday at Loughgall
 I salute my fallen comrades, as I watch the coppers fall
 Tiocfaidh Ar La, sing Up the Ra
 Tiocfaidh Ar La, sing Up the Ra
 Tiocfaidh Ar La, sing Up the Ra
