“Rise up the Starry Plough in James Connolly's name
Rise up the Starry Plough for his glory and his fame
He joined the Transport Union , so workers could be free
He fought for Irish Freedom, for the likes of you and me
James Connolly came from Scotland , a Rebel to the core,
He wanted not just freedom , but Socialism and more
He said when we gain our Freedom , from England's cruel hands,
We'll have to fight the bankers , we'll have to make a stand,
He held his life for liberty in the GPO,
He held his life for freedom , and he would not let it go
we'll the brits , they bombarded them and they smashed them brick by brick
He held his life for freedom, and the Socialist Republic
Connolly is a hero , and they shot him in a chair
They took him from the hospital, and those who were there
We'll they set his lips on fire, on that Easter morn
As the bullet pierced his heart , an Irish martyr was born
What will his legacy be , now in this land of mine?
Where nothing has a reason, and little has arrived
We fought the yeos in Wexford , we drove out the black n tans
Now we fight the bankers, and their greasy hands.”
- “Starry Plough” By The Druids
