[Verse 2] Then Jem cries out "Oh citizens This system is a curse An English boss is a monster An Irish one is worse They’ll never lock us out again And here’s the reason why My name is James Connolly I didn’t come here to die" [Pre-Chorus] But to fight for the rights of the workin’ man The small farmer too To protect the proletariat From the bosses and their screws [Chorus] So hold onto your rifles boys Don’t give up the dream A Republic for the workin’ class Economic... liberty! [Verse 3] Now over in the GPO With the bullets whizzin’ by There’s Pearse and Sean McDermott They’re tellin’ each other goodbye Up steps our citizen leaders As he roars out to the sky: My name is James Connolly I didn’t come here to die" [Pre-Chorus] But to fight for the rights of the workin’ man The small farmer too To protect the proletariat From the bosses and their screws [Chorus] So hold onto your rifles boys Don’t give up the dream A Republic for the workin’ class Economic... liberty! [Accordion Solo] [Accordion Solo] (Bass and guitar drop out) [Verse 4] (accordion drops out) We fought them to a standstill While the flames lit up the sky Till a bullet pierced our leader And we gave up on the fight They shot him in Kilmainham Gaol But they’ll never stop his cry My name is James Connolly I didn’t come here to die" [Pre-Chorus] (accordion returns) But to fight for the rights of the workin’ man The small farmer too To protect the proletariat From the bosses and their screws [Chorus] So hold onto your rifles boys Don’t give up the dream A Republic for the workin’ class Economic... liberty! Hey! [Accordion Solo] (slows to half-time) [Chorus] So hold onto your rifles boys Don’t give up the dream A Republic for the workin’ class Economic liberty
