Beerside Scoundrels – Come Out, Ye Black and Tans Lyrics
Artist: Beerside Scoundrels
Song: Come Out, Ye Black and Tans
I was born in a Dublin street
Where the Loyal drums do beat
And the loving English feet walked all over us
And each and every night
When me dad would come home tight
He’d call the neighbors out with this chorus
Come out ye black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the I.R.A. made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killeshandra
Come tell us how you slew
Them old Arabs two by two
Like the Zulu they had knives and bows and arrows
How bravely you faced one
With your sixteen pounder gun
And you frightened all them natives to the marrow
Come out ye black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the I.R.A. made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killeshandra
Come let us hear the tale
Of how you slew the great Parnell
And showed him what was well and persecuted
Where are the stares and jeers
That you proudly let us hear
When our heroes of sixteen were executed
Come out ye black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the I.R.A. made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killeshandra
Come out ye British huns
Come out and fight without your guns
Show you wife how you won medal down in Derry
You murdered sixteen men
And you’d do the same again
So get out of here and take you bloody army
Come out ye black and tans
Come out and fight me like a man
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Tell her how the I.R.A. made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes of Killeshandra
From the green and lovely lanes of Killeshandra
