Write down
This is all
It's a song which is a
A part of Irish history at its ugliest
Like many many years ago when a
A certain man called Oliver Cromwell
Shipped a...
Shipped hundreds of thousand of people from Ireland
To Barbados
This is where those beautiful people
It's a thing we call Tobacco

All to hell, we must sail for the shores of sweet Barbados
The sugar cane grows taller than the god we once believed in
The butcher and his crown raped the land we used to sleep in
Tomorrow chimes of ghostly crimes that haunt Tobacco Island

'Twas 1659 forgotten now for sure
They dragged us from our homeland with the musket and their gun
Cromwell and his roundheads battered all we knew
Shackled hopes of freedom, we're naught but stolen goods

Dark is the horizon
Blackened from the sun
This rotten cage of Bridgetown
Is where I now belong

All to hell, we must sail for the shores of sweet Barbados
...
