I.R.E.L.A.N.D.

Come all ye lads and lassies and sit you down with me,
And I will tell the truth about a land that's dear to me.
You've read it in the papers and you've seen it on TV,
But I will spell it out for you, what Ireland means to me:

CHORUS: I is for internment of the innocent and free.
R is for resistance to the laws of tyranny.
E is for the English who have torn our land apart.
L is for the love of freedom in every Irish heart.
A is for the answer we're all searching for.
N is for one nation and an end to this long war.
D is for the dream of millions longing to be free.
That's how I spell Ireland. That's what Ireland means to me.

This land was once respected for its saints and scholars too,
But now the bomb and bullet that's all that makes the news.
I know that it's confusing and it's hard to understand,
But I will spell it out for you by spelling Ireland. CHORUS
