Lirik Lagu Come out Ye Black and Tans – The Wolfe Tones

[Verse 1] Dm C

I was born on a Dublin street where the Royal drums do beat Dm

And the loving English feet they walked all over us F C Am

And every single night when me da would come home tight Dm C Dm

He’d invite the neighbors outside with this chorus

 

[Chorus] Dm

Oh, come out you black and tans C

Come out and fight me like a man Dm

Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders F C Am

Tell them how the IRA made you run like hell away Dm C Dm

From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra

 

[Verse 2] Dm

Come let me hear you tell C

How you slandered great Parnell Dm

When you thought him well and truly persecuted F

Where are the sneers and jeers C Am

That you loudly let us hear Dm C Dm

When our heroes of sixteen were executed

 

[Chorus] Dm

Oh, come out you black and tans C

Come out and fight me like a man Dm

Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders F C Am

Tell them how the IRA made you run like hell away Dm C Dm

From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra

 

[Verse 3] Dm

Come tell us how you slew C

Those ol’ Arabs two by two Dm

Like the Zulus they had spears and bows and arrows F

How you bravely faced one C Am

With your sixteen pounder gun Dm C Dm

And you frightened them poor natives to their marrow

 

[Chorus] Dm

Oh, come out you black and tans C

Come out and fight me like a man Dm

Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders F C Am

Tell them how the IRA made you run like hell away Dm C Dm

[Verse 4] Dm

Now the time is coming fast C

And I think them days are here Dm

When each English yeoman he will run before us F

And if there be a need C Am

Then our kids will say, “Godspeed!” Dm C Dm

With a verse or two of singing this fine chorus

 

[Chorus] Dm

Oh, come out you black and tans C

Come out and fight me like a man Dm

Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders F C Am

Tell them how the IRA made you run like hell away Dm C Dm

From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra
