Arseways


Under the fleur de lys born
The red rose raised to be worn
The thistle is scratching our veins
And a clover is in our brains

We are all immigrants
We’re not indifferent
United, in destiny
In a foreign country

Lionel the lumberjack
Worked hard for the Hudson
So he’ll get out of wrack’
Used so much to fell stun

Under the fleur de lys born
The red rose raised to be worn
The thistle is scratching our veins
And a clover is in our brains

Drew has bourgeois habits
Hands soft as buttchick
Don’t show money I’ll grab it
Don’t be fool, he was a wick

Under the fleur de lys born
The red rose raised to be worn
The thistle is scratching our veins
And a clover is in our brains

Fillan was wisemen
He use to be a gunmen
But he found the ways
With wife for better days

Under the fleur de lys born
The red rose raised to be worn
The thistle is scratching our veins
And a clover is in our brains

Caolan wasn’t sweet
He was a fighting Irishmen
Facing anybody on the street
For a few dollars he’ll do it again

Under the fleur de lys born
The red rose raised to be worn
The thistle is scratching our veins
And a clover is in our brains

We are all immigrants
We’re not indifferent
United, in destiny
In a foreign country

Under the fleur de lys born
The red rose raised to be worn
The thistle is scratching our veins
And a clover is in our brains
