On the One Road

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to 'God knows where'
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road swinging along
Singing a soldier's song

Though we've had our troubles now and then
Now is the time to make them up again
Sure aren't we all Irish anyhow
Now is the time, step together now

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to 'God knows where'
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road swinging along
Singing a soldier's song

Tinker, tailor, every mother's son
Butcher, baker shouldering his gun
Rich man, poor man, every man in line
All together just like Auld Lang Syne

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to 'God knows where'
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road swinging along
Singing a soldier's song

Night is darkest just before the dawn
From dissention Ireland is reborn
Soon we'll all be united Irishmen
Make our land a nation once again

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to 'God knows where'
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road swinging along
Singing a soldier's song

Though we've had our troubles now and then
Now is the time to make them up again
Sure aren't we all Irish anyhow
Now is the time, step together now

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to 'God knows where'
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road swinging along
Singing a soldier's song
