Am G
I was born on a Dublin street where the Royal drums did beat
Am
And those loving English feet they walked all over us
C G
And every single night when me da would come home tight
Am G Am
He'd invite the neighbors out with this chorus
Am
Come out you black and tans
G
Come out and fight me like a man
Am
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
C G
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
Am G Am
From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra
Am
Come let us hear you tell
G
How you slandered great Parnell
Am
When you thought him well and truly persecuted
C
Where are the sneers and jeers
G
That you loudly let us hear
Am G Am
When our leaders of sixteen were executed
Am
Come out you black and tans
G
Come out and fight me like a man
Am
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
C G
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
Am G Am
From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra
Am
Come tell us how you slew
G
Them ol' Arabs two by two
Am
Like the Zulus they had spears and bows and arrows
C
How you bravely faced one
G
With your sixteen pounder gun
Am G Am
And you frightened them poor natives to their marrow
Am
Come out you black and tans
G
Come out and fight me like a man
Am
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
C G
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
Am G Am
From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra
Am
Now the time is coming fast
G
And I think them days are here
Am
When each English yeoman he will run before us
C
And if there be a need
G
Then our kids will say, "Godspeed!"
Am G Am
With a verse or two of singing this fine chorus
Am
Come out you black and tans
G
Come out and fight me like a man
Am
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
C G
Tell her how the IRA made you run like hell away
Am G Am
From the green and lovely lanes in Killashandra
Am G Am
C G
