Dreadnoughts Grace O Malley Lyrics

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
