Rose Tattoo - Michael O'Reilly lyrics

(Anderson/Meyer) Michael O'Reilly he's a desperate man Fighting for his liberty Michael O'Reilly he's a dangerous man Fighting for his family Michael O'Reilly he's a peaceful man He's not a man too shy Michael O'Reilly he believes in life So he's not afraid to die CHORUS Hey Hey Hey Don't be sad today The people always win in the end There'll come a day The guns rust away And Ireland will be free again Michael O'Reilly truly loves his land He loves it with his heart and soul To his family he's a patriot A rebel by the law he is called There is only so far you can beat a dog Before he turns around to bite There's only so long you'll abuse a man Before he stands up to fight CHORUS X2 Repeat CHORUS X2 Repeat Sing it Hey Hey Hey Hey There'll come a day
