The Pubcrawlers - The Irish Combine lyrics

rate me

My name is Sean McGann from the County Tyrone

I've got whiskey for blood and I've got fists made of stone

I made my own way from the tenement to the ring

And when I knocked them out oh how the crowds they did sing

chorus:

I'll fight for my honor, I'll fight for my pride

I'll keep on fighting 'till the day that I die

And when I've gone and left this world behind

They'll still sing the praises of the Irish Combine

Hey!

I fought my first fight at the age of sixteen

The foe he was tough, I had it rought but the money it was green

You may not like it, but try to understand

When there's no food on the table you've got to do what you can

chorus

One by one they came and they all took their shot

One boy one they fell and a lesson they were taught

In the ring and on the street I was put to the test

After all was said and done they said I was the best

chorus
