Subject: Celtic Clan/Freeborn Man From: Big Mick Date: 23 Feb 02 - 11:24 AM We recorded a song and are looking for the author/attribution information. I have tried the Super Search with no result. I know it as either Freeborn Man or The Celtic Clan. The lyrics go like this: I'm a freeborn man of the celtic clan. I was born to be free To roam around from town to town That man that lives for liberty Chorus: So here's to the freeborn Celtic Clan, may we always be free No one can change our ancient ways, the land was meant for liberty Many men have tried to rule this land, Men from over the sea But our spirit stands firm as the rocky shore, we are what we'll always be. chorus And every man of this celtic clan, has no time for slavery We'll go our way for is many's the day, We'll sing and dance and be free. chorus |

Subject: RE: Help: Celtic Clan/Freeborn Man From: johnross Date: 24 Feb 02 - 12:33 AM It doesn't answer the question, but there are at least two other widely-sung "Freeborn Man" songs: Ewan MacColl's song that begins "I'm a freeborn man of the traveling people," from one of the Radio Ballads ("The Traveling People" I believe), and another by the bluegrass singer Jimmy Martin. Neither of those songs includes the line about the Celtic Clan. |
