We put the hood round his head
Then we shot the bastard dead
With a nick nack paddy whack, give a dog a bone
Send the stupid bastards home
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
Tu-ra-lu-ra laddy
Got pissed in Limavady
Got a kicking from the locals
There’s a bunch of drunking paddys
With a nick-nack-paddy-whack, give a dog a bone
Send the stupid bastards home
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
I shot one, I shot two
I shot three, that’s more than you
With a nick-nack-paddy-whack, give a dog a bone
Send the stupid bastards home
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
The nation’s gonna rise again
