Biografia:
The Irish brigade are an overtly Political ballad group from Northern Ireland. Good Musicians who also play non political material. They can veer from a humorous to poignant view of the situation in their country.
Similar to Shebeen and Seanchai in their outlook, The Irsh Brigade play regularly throughout Ireland, North and South and are very popular in the Celtic side of Glasgow.
There is also an Irish Brigade based out of the Twin Cities, MN in the US. This band has toured for over thirty years.

[Verse]
C
Now Ireland's a very funny place, sir
F C
It's a strange and a troubled land
And the Irish are a very funny race, sir
F
Every womans in the Cumann na mBan
C
Every doggie got a tri-coloured ribbon
F C
Tied firmly to its tail
And it wouldn't be surprising
F
If there'd be another rising
G C
Said the man from the Daily Mail
[Chorus]
C
Every bird upon my word
Am
Singing Yo Ho - I'm a Provo
C
Every hen in jail is laying hand grenades
G C
Over there, sir, I declare Sir
F C
And every cock in the farmyard
F G
Stock singing triumph to Sein Fein
F C
And it wouldn't be surprising
F G
If there'd be another rising
C G C
Said the man from the Daily Mail
[Verse]
C
On the other day I travelled down to Clare, sir
F C
I spied in an old boreen
Such a bunch of busy gooses there, sir
F
Dressed in orange, white and green
C
They marched to the German goose step
F C
As they whistled Grann na bheal,
C
and every time I showed up
F
They would shoot me as a yeoman
G C
Said the man from the Daily Mail
[Chorus]

Every bird upon my word

Said the man from the Daily Mail
[Verse]
C
Now the whole place is seething with sedition
F C
It's Sinn Fein through and through
All the boys are joining local units
F
And the password's Sinn Fein too
C F C
Well the IRA just sent me a time bomb in the mail
C F
And I'm shaking in my shoes as I'm typing up the news
