The Big C
The big letter C
Or rather the big old James Connolly
An Irishman who fought for workers injustice
An advocate for human rights what a sight
He left Ireland once for America
But when he got there it was just the same
So he simply after so many years came right back
To what he left behind which was exactly the same
What a pain but that didn't knock Connolly off his game
He was determined to fight for Irish worker rights
But who knew to kind of achieve that goal he'd have to pay for with his life
But James Connolly was willing to take that gamble
For Irish freedom Irish rights and Irish men,women and children young and old
Too bad it took so long for them to figure that out
As the final 1916 shots could be heard
