Come Out, Ye Black and Tans
(Dominic Behan [1970s], arrang. J. Ferguson, Dec. 2013)
Capo @ 1, 100 bpm
V1.
Am G Em
I was born on a Dublin street where the loyal drums did beat,
Am
and the loving English feet they tramped all over us.
C G Em
And each and every night when me Dad would come home tight
Am G Am
he'd invite the neighbours outside with this chorus:
Chorus:
Come out, ye black and tans; come out and fight me like a man!
Show your wives how you won medals down in Flanders.
Tell them how the IRA made you run like hell away,
from the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra.
Interlude: Am G Am
V2.
Come on, let us hear you tell
how you slaughtered great Parnell.
How you fought them well and truly persecuted.
Where are those sneers and jeers
that you bravely let us hear
when our heroes of sixteen were executed.
Chorus:
V3.
Come, tell us how you slew
them poor Arabs two by two:
like the Zulus they had spears and bows and arrows.
Tell us how you slew each one
with your sixteen-pounder gun
and you frightened them poor natives to the marrow.
Chorus:
V4.
Well, the day is coming fast,
and the time is here at last
when each yeoman will be cast aside before us.
And if there be a need
sure my sons will sing, "Godspeed!"
with a verse or two of Stephen Beehan's chorus.
Chorus: [repeat final line three times]
