*Manticore* 1,893 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Father's Advice Said a father to his son, "Oh my boy the time has come", Your country it is calling unto thee, For those rebels once again, To unite us is their aim, And together we must stand to keep her free. Remember, our fathers brave and bold, As they fought for Ulsters cause in far off lands, Oh my father said to me "I must join the Y.C.V", With a rifle or a pistol in my hand. From Belfast to Armagh, Carade to old Crossgar, From Ballymena to old Omagh town, With their standards flying high, As it was in days gone by, We will rally round the flag for liberty. Remember, our fathers brave and bold, As they fought for Ulsters cause in far off lands, Oh my father said to me "I must join the Y.C.V", With a rifle or a pistol in my hand. Come all you Volunteers, Let us fight and never fear, Just like our fathers did so long ago, Though i'm sixteen years of age, In the Volunteers i'll engage, Like our fathers did so many years ago. Remember, our fathers brave and bold, As they fought for Ulsters cause in far off lands, Oh my father said to me "I must join the Y.C.V", With a rifle or a pistol in my hand.
