Boys From The County Cork

	G
You've	read in history's pages

	C	G
The	heroes of great	fame

The deeds they done, the battles won

	D
And	how they made their name

	G
But the	boys that mad the history

	C	G
For the	orange, white and	green

	C	G
Were the	boys who died in	Dublin Town

	D	G
In	nineteen	sixteen

(Chorus)
So meet the boys from Kerry
And meet the boys form Clare
From Dublin, Wicklow, Donegal
And the boys of old Kildare
Some came from a land beyond the sea
From Boston and New York
But the boys who beat the Black and Tans
Were the boys from the County Cork

Now Cork gave us Mick Sweeney
A martyr for to die
And Wicklow gave us Dwyer
In days so long gone by
And Dublin gave us Padraig Pearse
McBride and Cathal Brugha
And America gave us de Valera
To lead old Ireland through
