The Mighty Regis - Black Shamrock lyrics

Won't read about 'em in any book Paddy's from the kitchen in Hell Working the roofs in old Red Hook Where many a good man fell More hits then the New York Yankees Since they landed on this shore Type of mob this fair country Has never seen before (Chorus) From the green fields of Mayo To that city that don't sleep A little known club A secret we all keep The heart keeps on ticking It's been steady like a clock All united together under The BLACK SHAMROCK In days of old these lads were bold A crime was how they vented Step out of line and in no time Find your fate would be cemented Told Irish need not apply And it didn't f**in' matter Boom goes a shop West 53rd And they'd watch the windows shatter (Chorus) Fame in the names like Al Capone There's a wrong that needs 'a' rightin' They'd all stand up shout POGUE MO THOIN Hit the streets and start 'a' fightin' Buried these boys all faced down To show 'em where they're going The devil looked up, got out of town And we keep the whiskey flowing Slainte' lads, we raise a gla** To your job well done We play on loud and proud Don't forget where you come from (Chorus) The BLACK SHAMROCK The BLACK SHAMROCK
