Biografía:
Pangur Ban, from Derry city, were undoubtedly one of the finest folk/rebel bands to emerge from the war torn occupied six counties of Ulster during the most recent phase of the long struggle for Irish independence from british misrule.
Formed in 1983 they sadly called it a day at the height of their popularity in '86 having recorded only one album, "DHSScover Ireland". (Which was launched on the evening this recording was made.) Nonetheless, the

[Verse]
D Gbm G Gbm
On the slopes of the Creggan one morning in May,
G D A
Four lads left their base with hearts young and gay,
D Gbm G Gbm
Their cause was for freedom a cause undenied,
G D A
And that foreign oppressor they went to defy.
D Gbm G Gbm
While patroling our streets they met with the foe,
G D A
And with guns at the ready our lads had a go.
[Chorus]
D A Bm G
So we`ll raise up our hands and we`ll curse that British hand,
D Bm Em C
Who tore out the very hearts of men who dared to cross their path,
D A Bm G
But my heart is broke in two, won`t you tell me what to do,
D Bm Em A D
They couldn`t stop poor George and Pop and they`ll not stop me and you.
[Verse]
D Gbm G Gbm
For the place it went silent when the shooting died down,
G D A
Two young lads they lay dead on the streets of our town,
D Gbm G Gbm
Another two lives lost for the ongoing fight,
G D A
And in Derry were mourned on that fateful night.
[Chorus]
D A Bm G
So we`ll raise up our hands and we`ll curse that British hand,
D Bm Em C
Who tore out the very hearts of men who dared to cross their path,
D A Bm G
But my heart is broke in two, won`t you tell me what to do,
D Bm Em A D
They couldn`t stop poor George and Pop and they`ll not stop me and you.
[Verse]
D Gbm G Gbm
Now Georgie and Pop they lie cold as stone,
G D A
They died fighting for Derry, their own native home,
D Gbm G Gbm
So always remember and don`t ever forget,
G D A
They died fighting for Ireland and we owe them debt.
[Chorus]
D A Bm G
So we`ll raise up our hands and we`ll curse that British hand,
D Bm Em C
Who tore out the very hearts of men who dared to cross their path,
D A Bm G
But my heart is broke in two, won`t you tell me what to do,
D Bm Em A D
They couldn`t stop poor George and Pop and they`ll NEVER stop me and you.
