<pre><font size='+2'>JAMES CONNOLLY lyrics TONES WOLFE</font><br>Collected and Arranged by The Wolfe Tones<br />
<br />
The man was all shot through that came to day into the Barrack Square<br />
<br />
And a soldier I, I am not proud to say that we killed him there<br />
<br />
They brought him from the prison hospital and to see him in that chair<br />
<br />
I swear his smile would, would far more quickly call a man to prayer<br />
<br />
Maybe, maybe I don`t understand this thing that makes these rebels die<br />
<br />
Yet all men love freedom and the spring clear in the sky<br />
<br />
I wouldn`t do this deed again for all that I hold by<br />
<br />
As I gazed down my rifle at his breast but then, then a soldier I.<br />
<br />
They say he was different, kindly too apart from all the rest.<br />
<br />
A lover of the poor-his wounds ill dressed.<br />
<br />
He faced us like a man who knew a greater pain<br />
<br />
Than blows or bullets ere the world began: died he in vain<br />
<br />
Ready, Present, and him just smiling, Christ I felt my rifle shake<br />
<br />
His wounds all open and around his chair a pool of blood<br />
<br />
And I swear his lips said, `fire` before my rifle shot that cursed lead<br />
<br />
And I, I was picked to kill a man like that, James Connolly<br />
<br />
 <br />
<br />
A great crowd had gathered outside of Kilmainham<br />
<br />
Their heads all uncovered, they knelt to the ground.<br />
<br />
For inside that grim prison<br />
<br />
Lay a great Irish soldier<br />
<br />
His life for his country about to lay down.<br />
<br />
He went to his death like a true son of Ireland<br />
<br />
The firing party he bravely did face<br />
<br />
Then the order rang out: Present arms and fire<br />
<br />
James Connolly fell into a ready-made grave<br />
<br />
The black flag was hoisted, the cruel deed was over<br />
<br />
Gone was the man who loved Ireland so well<br />
<br />
There was many a sad heart in Dublin that morning<br />
<br />
When they murdered James Connolly-. the Irish rebel<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/james_connolly_lyrics-tones_wolfe.html" target='_blank'>JAMES CONNOLLY lyrics TONES WOLFE</a></pre>

Collected and Arranged by The Wolfe Tones

The man was all shot through that came to day into the Barrack Square

And a soldier I, I am not proud to say that we killed him there

They brought him from the prison hospital and to see him in that chair

I swear his smile would, would far more quickly call a man to prayer

Maybe, maybe I don`t understand this thing that makes these rebels die

Yet all men love freedom and the spring clear in the sky

I wouldn`t do this deed again for all that I hold by

As I gazed down my rifle at his breast but then, then a soldier I.

They say he was different, kindly too apart from all the rest.

A lover of the poor-his wounds ill dressed.

He faced us like a man who knew a greater pain

Than blows or bullets ere the world began: died he in vain

Ready, Present, and him just smiling, Christ I felt my rifle shake

His wounds all open and around his chair a pool of blood

And I swear his lips said, `fire` before my rifle shot that cursed lead

And I, I was picked to kill a man like that, James Connolly

A great crowd had gathered outside of Kilmainham

Their heads all uncovered, they knelt to the ground.

For inside that grim prison

Lay a great Irish soldier

His life for his country about to lay down.

He went to his death like a true son of Ireland

The firing party he bravely did face

Then the order rang out: Present arms and fire

James Connolly fell into a ready-made grave

The black flag was hoisted, the cruel deed was over

Gone was the man who loved Ireland so well

There was many a sad heart in Dublin that morning

When they murdered James Connolly-. the Irish rebel
