The Earth Will Die Without the Rain

The Earth Will Die Without The Rain March 26. 2016 This is Bobby Sands to Ireland down below The message to my people, why we had to go Born in Ireland, disrespected by the ones that came Rights denied, imprisoned, the played their dirty game We tried in life to make things right Ten of us, never gave up the fight My Irish sky, my land of green The peoples choice, I had a dream Harassed by day and the dark of night We had enough, we can make things right All around this lovely land our people die Young and old, my Irish family we had to try We felt the pain but would do it again the earth will die without the rain Full of fear but strong in heart Ten heroes of Ireland played their part Freedom from the heavens above God bless my country and people we love This is Bobby to Ireland down below The message to my people, why we had to go Gerrard McGeachy
