"On The One Road" lyrics

"On The One Road"

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to God knows where
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road, swingin' along
Singin' a soldier's song

Though we've had our troubles now and then
Now is the time to make them up again
Sure aren't we all Irish anyhow
Now is the time to step together now

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to God knows where
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road, swingin' along
Singin' a soldier's song

Tinker, tailor, every watcher's son
Butcher, baker, shouldering his gun
Rich man, poor man, every man in line
All together just like Auld Lang Syne

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to God knows where
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road, swingin' along
Singin' a soldier's song

Night is darkness just before the dawn
From descensions, Ireland is reborn
Soon we'll all be United Irishmen
Make our land a nation once again

We're on the one road
Sharing the one load
We're on the road to God knows where
We're on the one road
It may be the wrong road
But we're together now, who cares?
North men, South men, comrades all
Dublin, Belfast, Cork or Donegal
We're on the one road, swingin' along
Singin' a soldier's song
