Fiach Moriarty - Freedom and Resistance Lyrics

I've got something that you might like to see
I've got John O'Reilly and he's hanging from a tree
Now it's time for you to swing right by his side
For today's the day you're gonna die

I've got something that you might like to know
I've got sixty Catholics and they're hanging from a bow
How we played them like a sweet old violin
Now you must see you can never win

Well I know, yeah i know
In the heat of Churubusco
That the fact we fought back
Means more than any act you'll pass today
So kill me this day

Well I've got something that you might like to wear
Around your throat as I kick this wooden chair
And your neck will snap and you will die in pain
And all your efforts will have been in vain

Well I know, yeah i know
In the heat of Churubusco
That the fact we fought back
Means more than any act you'll pass today
So kill me this day

Just one last request before leaving this living land
You should think of all you've done with that cruel heavy hand
And remember my face for the rest of your existence
For this is the face of freedom and resistance

Well I know, yeah i know
In the heat of Churubusco
That the fact we fought back
Means more than any act you'll pass today
Yeah i know
In the heat of Churubusco
That the fact we fought back
Means more than any act you'll pass today
So kill me this day
