the weavers
In the North of Ireland,
there's a crowd of fellas
Em
C
called Orange Man
If I come down to you, I'll
There's an Orange Man over here
Anyhow, this is a song about a fella
who was an Orange Man
In the North of Ireland,
they're the bad fellas
and we are the good fellas
And they have big rows and parades
and everything on 12th
of July every year
To commemorate the crossing
of the river Boyne
by King Billy
Now, we didn't care
too much for King Billy,
and we still don't care too much for King Billy.
