cuba five - the lines (irish folk) lyrics

[intro]
i think that they have purchased half of us and intimidated the other half. i think that they have foreseen everything. i think they have forbade against everything. for the fools, the fools, the fools. they have left us all free in chains

[verse 1]
it was on that british isle when they took us down by force
they locked away the key without a second of remorse
they tortured and they pried and they wanted us to lie
banished from britannia to becomе the cuba five

[chorus]
they sеnt us sailing through stormy winter seas
headed for the land, the land they called the free
we knew our fortune, arrested in our lands
that meant the irish fenians amid those black and tans

[verse 2]
there was the two oul’ johnnies, john mcclure and john devoy
and there was oul’ henry, little charles and jeremiah
when we landed in america they welcomed us with joy
paraded us around the streets with flags of fenian boys

[chorus]
they sent us sailing through stormy winter seas
headed for the land, the land they called the free
we knew our fortune, arrested in our lands
that meant the irish fenians amid those black and tans
[verse 3]
it was on that foreign land where the sun it doesn’t shine
resided five brave souls standing up for what is right
their names a last in history, ’cause heroes they became
fighting for our freedom, carrying the irish flame

[chorus]
oh we came sailing on stormy winter seas
headed for the land, the land they called the free
we knew our fortune, arrested in our lands
amid the irish nation amid those black and tans
