John Lennon
Sunday Bloody Sunday
[Verse 1: John Lennon]
Well it was Sunday, Bloody Sunday
When they shot the people there
The cries of thirteen martyrs
Filled the free Derry air
Is there any one amongst you
Dare to blame it on the kids?
Not a soldier boy was bleeding
When they nailed the coffin lids
[Chorus: Yoko Ono]
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
[Verse 2: John Lennon]
Well, you claim to be majority
Well, you know that it's a lie
You're really a minority
On this sweet Emerald Isle
When Stormont bans our marchers
They've got a lot to learn
Internment is no answer
It's those mothers' turn to burn
[Chorus: Yoko Ono]
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
[Chorus: Yoko Ono]
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
[Verse 3: John Lennon]
Well, you Anglo pigs and Scotties
Sent to colonise the north
You wave your bloody Union Jacks
And you know what it's worth
How dare you hold to ransom
A people proud and free
Keep Ireland for the Irish
Put the English back to sea
[Chorus: Yoko Ono]
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
[Chorus: Yoko Ono]
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
[Verse 4: John Lennon]
Well, it's always Bloody Sunday
In the concentration camps
Keep Falls Road free forever
From the bloody English hands
Repatriate to Britain
All of you who call it home
Leave Ireland to the Irish
Not for London or for Rome
[Outro: Yoko Ono]
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
