Take It Down From the Mast lyrics

Take it down from the mast, Irish traitors,
It's the flag we Republicans claim.
It can never belong to Free Staters,
For they've brought on it nothing but shame.

I'll not leave it to those who are willing
To uphold it in war and in peace,
To the men who intend to do killing
Until England's tyranny cease.

Take it down from the mast, Irish traitors,
It's the flag we Republicans claim.
It can never belong to Free Staters,
For you've brought on it nothing but shame.

You have murdered our brave Liam and Rory
You've slaughtered young Richard and Joe
Your hands with their blood are still gory
Fulfilling the work of the foe.

Take it down from the mast, Irish traitors,
It's the flag we Republicans claim.
It can never belong to Free Staters,
For you've brought on it nothing but shame.

I'll not leave it to those who are willing
To uphold it in war and in peace,
To the men who intend to do killing
Until England's tyranny cease.

Take it down from the mast, Irish traitors,
It's the flag we Republicans claim.
It can never belong to Free Staters,
For you've brought on it nothing but shame.
