  • At the age of sixteen years he left his home in tears
    His mother watched as he walked out the door
    As his family bade farewell and his neighbours wished him well
    From the road his dad and brother took before
    And as the ship set sail for France he gave Belfast one more glance
    As the ship began to move away from shore
    He could see there on the land the proud YCV flute band
    And he could hear them play "The sash my father wore"
    From the Shankill Road they went oh their young lives to be spent
    On the first day of july, so long ago
    All for the deeds that they have done and the glories they had won
    We'll remember as long as the bright red poppies grow
    When they charged from Thiepval wood they were in a fighting mood
    As they forced their way across the fields of fire
    As they stormed that great redoubt you could hear those Ulster shout
    As they lay dyin midst the twisted shells and wire
    From the Shankill Road they went oh their young lives to be spent
    On the first day of july so long ago
    All for the deeds that they had done and the glory they had won
    We'll remember as long as the bright red poppies grow
    On the 9th day of july you could hear a mothers cry
    Her eyes were red and filled with loving tears
    Oh God my son has died he was fighting side by side
    With the boys and men of the Ulster volunteers
    From the Shankill Road they went sure their young lives to be spent
    On the first day of july so long ago
    All for the deeds that they have done and the glories they had won
    We'll remember as long as the bright red poppies grow
    From the Shankill Road they went oh their young lives to be spent
    On the first day of july so long ago
    All for the deeds that they have done and the glories they had won
    We remember as long as the bright red poppies grow
    From the Shankill Road they went oh their young lives to be spent
    On the first day of july so long ago
    All the deeds that they have done and the glories they had won
    We'll remember as long as the bright red poppies grow
    We'll remember as long as the bright red poppies grow
