Paroles

I was born in County Kildare, just southwest of Dublin
The third child and second son of Elizabeth and William
The year was 1842, just before the hunger
My dad broke stones and worked the rails to keep us from going under
Gone, gone, gone are the days of old
Go on, go on, into the fold
I grew up on tales of the failed and bloody Irish rebellions
So when I was old enough I joined up with the Fenians
And when the British Army arrested me and charged me with treason
I went away to Americay to escape my death in prison
Gone, gone, gone are the days of old
Go on, go on, into the fold
I refused to sing "God Save the Queen" when I was just a boy
By birth an Irish rebel, by name, John Devoy
Ahoooo, John Devoy, Oooooo
From the slums of New York City, I started the Clan na Gael
All those years that we fought and bled, this time we couldn't fail
So from Boston town to Frisco Bay, I crisscrossed this country
Raising funds to buy more guns to fight the foreign enemy
From these shores I will fight to my grave
John Devoy is my name and Ireland we'll save
One day we'll rise together, Erin go Bragh, Ireland forever
Gone, gone, gone are the days of old
Go on, go on, into the fold
I refused to sing "God Save the Queen" when I was just a boy
By birth an Irish rebel, by name, John Devoy
Ahoooo, John Devoy, Oooooo
Gone are the days we rest, go on into the west, go on, go on
Gone are the days we rest, go on into the west, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on
I was born in County Kildare, just southwest of Dublin
The third child and second son of Elizabeth and William
The year was 1842, just before the hunger
