Up in the Armagh Prison,
Where they keep the women,
Young Devlin lies In a prison cell.
And for the Bogside people
There'll be no sleeping,
Until young Devlin
Has been set free.
Ah, the oul' Judge framed her,
As they tried to shame her,
But the world's acclaimed her,
For all she's done.
And for the Bogside people
There'll be no sleeping,
Until young Devlin
Has been set free.
Ah, did youmsee them running,
From our petrol bombing?
Sure they ran like rats,
Instead of men.
And for the Bogside people
There'll be no sleeping,
Until young Devlin
Has been set free.
For defending Bogside,
That was why she was tried,
She forced the policemen,
All to fly.
And for the Bogside people
There'll be no sleeping,
Until young Devlin
Has been set free.
Ah, the day is coming,
When we'll all stop running,
And Connolly's cause
Will call again.
Then the Irish People,
Will stop their sleeping,
And we'll set our country,
All free again.
Where they keep the women,
Young Devlin lies In a prison cell.
And for the Bogside people
There'll be no sleeping,
Until young Devlin
Has been set free.
Ah, the oul' Judge framed her,
As they tried to shame her,
But the world's acclaimed her,
For all she's done.
And for the Bogside people
There'll be no sleeping,
Until young Devlin
Has been set free.
