Lyrics:
Go on home, British soldiers, go on home Have you got no bloody homes of your own? For eight hundred years, we've fought you without fear And we'll fight you for eight hundred more
The soldiers took the streets in Sixty-Nine To protect the people at that time In Derry and Belfast, but the peace, it did not last You were shooting people down and wrecking homes
So go on home, British soldiers, go on home Have you got no bloody homes of your own? For eight hundred years, we've fought you without fear And we'll fight you for eight hundred more
We're not Saxons, we're not English, we're not Brits We're Irish and we are proud of it So stick your Union Jack, we want our country back We want to see old Ireland free once more
So go on home, British soldiers, go on home Have you got no bloody homes of your own? For eight hundred years, we've fought you without fear And we'll fight you for eight hundred more
Now, remember Operation Motorman And the barricades came down across the land You were shooting people dead with your plastic and your lead And you took the side of Stormont in the end
So go on home, British soldiers, go on home Have you got no bloody homes of your own? For eight hundred years, we've fought you without fear And we'll fight you for eight hundred more
If you stay, British soldiers, if you stay You'll never ever beat the I.R.A For the fourteen men in Derry Are the last that you will bury And take a trip and leave us all alone
So go on home, British soldiers, go on home Have you got no bloody homes of your own? For eight hundred years, we've fought you without fear And we'll fight you for eight hundred more Yes, we'll fight you for eight hundred more
