James Connolly
Where oh where is our James Connolly?
Where oh where is that gallant man?
He is gone for to organize the unions
That working people, they might yet be free
Where oh where is our citizen army?
Where oh where is that gallant band?
They are gone for to join the great rebellion
And smash the bonds of slavery
They carried him up to Kilmainham
They carried him up to the jail
And they shot him down on a bright May morning
And quickly laid him in his grave
Who mourns the death of this great man?
Who mourns the death of this great man?
Bury me down in yon green garden
With union men on every side
They buried him down in yon green garden
With union men on every side
And they swore that they would forge a mighty weapon
That James Connolly's name would live again with pride
Where oh where is our James Connolly?
(He's here)
Where oh where is that gallant man?
He is gone for to join the great rebellion
And smash the bonds of slavery
Where oh where is that gallant man?
He is gone for to organize the unions
That working people, they might yet be free
Where oh where is our citizen army?
Where oh where is that gallant band?
They are gone for to join the great rebellion
And smash the bonds of slavery
They carried him up to Kilmainham
They carried him up to the jail
And they shot him down on a bright May morning
And quickly laid him in his grave
Who mourns the death of this great man?
Who mourns the death of this great man?
Bury me down in yon green garden
With union men on every side
They buried him down in yon green garden
With union men on every side
And they swore that they would forge a mighty weapon
That James Connolly's name would live again with pride
Where oh where is our James Connolly?
(He's here)
Where oh where is that gallant man?
He is gone for to join the great rebellion
And smash the bonds of slavery
