Molly Maguires
(Bill Martin / Phil Coulter)
G D
Ch Make way for the Molly Maguires
C G
They're drinkers, they're liars but they're men
G D
Make way for the Molly Maguires
C D G
You'll never see the likes of them again
Em G
Ver Down the mines no sunlight shines
G Em
Those pits they're black as hell
Em G C
In mud and slime they do their time
G D G
It's Paddy's prison cell
Em C G
And they curse the day they travelled far
C D
And drown their tears with a jar
Ch So, make way to the Molly Maguires........
Ver2: Backs will break and muscles ache
Down there, there's no time to dream
Of fields and farms, of womans arms
Just dig that bloody seam
Though they drain their bodies underground
Who'll dare to push them around
Ch So, make way to the Molly Maguires........
Ch So, make way to the Molly Maguires........
