Thatcher's Jig

From Monaghan to Castlebar From Lifford down to Sligo In county Cork and Tullamore We bear that ancient evil They tell us they gave back our land But still their forces hold Armagh, Antrim Fermanagh Down Derry and Tyrone So dance, Thatcher, dance Send your new age black and tans We'll defend ol' Eire To our very last man So dance, Thatcher, dance I'll protect this land of mine We only need be lucky once For you it's every time They say the times have changed Towards reconciliation But they'll get nothing of the sort 'Til we get back our nation We can hear them scheming From across the Irish Sea Their evil whispers carried by The lovely salty breeze
