Grace O'Malley

Boys, I remember one September
 Taking arms up to the crown
 Beaten up and broken down
 And the maid that Connaught gave us
 Who could save us from our shame
 Grace O'Malley was her name
 Granuaile the Pirate Queen
 Flashing eyes so wild and green
 I was only seventeen, boys
 I'd no right to be
 In Grace O'Malley's company
 Her solution, retribution
 Revolution in the air
 Sailed we from the county Clare
 Every galleon or battalion
 Who bore the British crest
 Sent them howling from the west
 Granuaile the Pirate Queen
 Flashing eyes so wild and green
 I was only seventeen, boys
 I'd no right to be
 In Grace O'Malley's company
 How we adored her even more sir
 When the order came around
 With an offer from the crown
 Hike the stems boys, up the Thames boys
 It's Gracie breath to breath
 With the one Elizabeth
 Granuaile the Pirate Queen
 Flashing eyes so wild and green
 I was only seventeen, boys
 I'd no right to be
 In Grace O'Malley's company
 Just one thousand men
 No one ever found again
 She was offered and upset, boys
 The pure light was she
 Our Grace O'Malley's Company
