Over deze songtekst:
The Fighting Men From Crossmaglen is een Ierse band die Ierse folk music speelt.
A great crowd had gathered outside of Kilmeinhem Their heads all uncovered they knelt to the ground From inside that grim building lay a brave Irish soldier His life for his country about to lay down He went to his death like a brave son of Ireland The firing party he bravely did face When the order rang out: "Present Arms, Fire!" James Connolly fell into a ready-made grave The Four Courts at Dublin the English bombarded The spirit of Freedom they tried hard to quell For above all the din came the cry 'No Surrender' 'Twas the voice of James Cannolly, the Irish Rebel Many years have gone by now since that Irish rebellion When the guns of Britannia they loudly did speak And the bold I.R.A. they stood shoulder to shoulder While the blood from their bodies flowed down Sackville Street God's curse on you, England, you cruel-hearted monster Your deeds they would shame all the devils in hell. There'll be no flowers blooming but the shamrocks still growing On the grave of James Connolly, the Irish Rebel!
