GUEST,Betsy (bjbashore@buckeye-express.com) Lyr Req: In 1916, did you stand up like a man.... (12) Lyr Req: In 1916, did you stand up like a man.... 27 Sep 04


Hi,

I am looking for lyrics to an Irish song - the recording I heard was from 8-10 years ago done by a small band (from Boston?) I don't know if its a more mainstream song or one they wrote. All I can remember is the first verse....

In 1916, did you stand up like a man?
In 1920, did you fight the black and tans?
Were you a rebel, did you fight for ireland then,
And if you did will you stand by her once again?

There's war in the streets of Belfast....

And I can't remember any more of it. Is anyone familiar with this one? Its driving me batty trying to dredge it up from memory.

Betsy
