My old mans was a povie.
he wore the khaki green.
Black beret and armalite.
He was a sight to be seen.
In the hills of Armagh and Antrims lovely glen.
He carried his daring deeds .
Just like the Fenian men.
Now the touts have taken over.
And turned the war to bust
From armalites to armani,s and a life of clover.
And god save the queen is a must..

My old man's a provo
he fought for liberty
now he says he's ready
to meet the royalty.

He fought for Irish freedom
and that we all agree
was the only thing worth dying for
on the streets of Derry.

He swore to fight the British
till the bitter end
with every drop of OUR blood
most willing to expend.

Then came Good Friday
the darkest day of all
when da for all his cunning
took a terrible fall.

Breaking every promise
he had ever made
he took the plunge with all our guns
forsaking the Patriot Game.

2012-06-10T15:55:15.131+01:00

Carrie threw me this one:

My old man’s a Provo, up at Stormont with the Huns
I haven’t seen him lately, he’s no time for rebel sons
He looks really trendy in his Armani and jackboot
He thinks he’s cooler than the other das, spending all his loot

The Brits and police ask me, each time that I go out
They ask me if I seen me da or if he’s been about
‘But youse see him more than me’, I say, ‘at policing meetings’
‘Giving you the names of those next in line for beatings’

On RTE last Friday night, Turbidy was heard to say
Please give us a little history, about your time in the IRA
They showed a Provo unit but I swear it wasn’t right
My da only joined Sinn Fein to lead them from the fight

2012-06-10T15:34:28.917+01:00

Larry.

not really a miracle. I'm not really too different to most on here. Just like to tease out the position now and then...sometimes overdoing it a tad.

Shinners throwing a wobbler.

The culture minister has criticised the Northern Ireland Office (NIO) for announcing a celebration of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee in the grounds of Stormont without consulting Sinn Fein.

Caral Ni Chuilin said she would not be attending the event on 27 June.

I just love that one, how many faces do they have, might be in fighting to see who shakes Battenburgh's hand, or, a miracle might happen and none of the Shinners will turn up in protest at Marians internment also Gerry McGeough and Martin Corey, I would love to see that happening.
