They commandeered the GPO
Soon to fight again
With the bullets raised
And the canons roared
And wires on top were so grand
So barricades of broken glass
Guns of the rebel fired
There's the British Army advance
Well the lovers fought side by side

So here's to those brave women and men
who fought and died for us all
Well it wasn't for fortune
And it wasn't for fame
They marched from Liberty hall
They marched for the bare foot toy rags
And a mother who cried in vain
A corer who died on the building site
Down at ????????
