Irish Song Lyrics

The Armagh Women by Margaret D'Arcy 
In Black Armagh of the Goddess Macha Last February in the grey cold jail The Governor Scott in his savage fury Came down to break the women's will Forty jailers my forty jailers From the hell of Long Kesh came down And help me break these warrior women 
The forty jailers put on their armour 
Strapped on their helmets took up their shields Then they beat the Armagh women they beat them down They were sure they'd yield Three days he kept them locked up in darkness Locked up in filth you would not believe When he released them he was so conceited That one and all he thought they would yield 
If you have suffered he smilingly said It never happened it was all just a dream Come out come out and obey my orders But the Armagh women they would never yield They'd never yield to Scott the governor They'd never yield till they broke him down He and his jailers were all locked in prison By the women of Armagh jail 
And there they remain those warrior women Locked up in filth you would not believe They hold Scott and his warders powerless They hold them there, they'll never concede Women of Ireland stand up and declare Women of Ireland understand your power Make us see that together we'll do it We'll tumble down their stone grey tower 
In Black Armagh of the Godess Mache Last February in a cold grey cell....
