Ooh Ah Up The Ra Sam Song Meaning
| [[Verse 1:] Well I have been a Provo now for fifteen years or more Of armalites and mortar bombs I thought I knew the score Now we have a weapon we’ve never used before The Brits are looking worried, and they’re going to worry more [Hook:] Tiocfaidh ár lá, sing up the ‘RA (Ooh, ah, up the ‘RA! Ooh ah up the ‘RA!) SAM missiles in the sky… [Verse 2:] Well I started out with petrol bombs and throwing bricks and stones There were a hundred more lads like me I never was alone Soon I learned that bricks and stones won’t drive the Brits away It wasn’t very long before (who did I join?) I joined the IRA [Hook] [Verse 3:] Then there came internment in the year of ’71 The Brits thought we were beaten that we were on the run On that early August morning they kicked in our back door But for every man they took away (how many did they miss?) they missed a hundred more [Hook] , [Verse 4:] I spent eight years in the cages had time to think and plan Although they locked away a boy I walked out a man There’s only one thing that I learned while in a cell I lay The Brits will never leave us (until when?) until they’re blown away [Hook] [Verse 5:] All through the days of hunger strike I watched my comrades die And in the streets of Belfast you could hear the women cry I can’t forget the massacre that Friday at Loughgall I salute my fallen comrades as, I watch the choppers fall [Hook}] |
