[00:00.00]The Patriot Game - The Bluebells
[00:01.37]Written by：D. Behan
[00:02.74]Come all you young rebels and list while I sing
[00:11.47]For the love of one's country is a terrible thing
[00:19.88]It banishes fear with the speed of a flame
[00:28.57]And it makes us all part of the patriot game
[00:37.07]My name is O'hanlon I've just turned sixteen
[00:45.56]My home is in Montanan where I was weaned
[00:54.10]I learned all my life injustice to blame
[01:02.72]And so I'm part of the patriot game
[01:11.14]It's barely two years since I wandered away
[01:19.57]With the local battalion of the old Ira
[01:28.21]They told me of heroes I wanted the same
[01:36.78]To play a great part in the patriot game
[02:17.68]Where is the young man this earth ever taught
[02:25.91]Whose life is less sacred then all the old fraught
[02:34.41]Whose boy who's less lucky whose vision less fate
[02:42.95]Than the old men who paid for the patriot game
[02:55.69]And now as I'm dyeing my body all holes
[03:04.17]I think of the old men who bargained and sold
[03:12.69]I'm sorry my rifle has not done the same
[03:21.32]To those rebels who sold out the patriot game
