The Wicklow Boy

[00:00:01] The wicklow boy - Christy moore

[00:00:12] As I walked past Portlaoise Prison "I'm innocent" a voice was heard to say"

[00:00:22] My frame-up is almost completed

[00:00:28] My people all look the other way "

[00:00:32] Seven years ago his torture started

[00:00:39] A forced confession he was made to sign

[00:00:43] Young Irish men specially trained and chosen Were on the heavy gang that made him run the line

[00:00:53] Others in the Bride well heard him screaming

[00:01:00] Even prison doctors could see

[00:01:05] His injuries were not self-inflicted

[00:01:10] Those who tipped the scales did not agree

[00:01:15] Give the Wicklow Boy his freedom Give him back his liberty

[00:01:24] Ore are we going to leave him in chains

[00:01:31] While those who framed him up hold the key

[00:01:35] Deprived of human rights by his own people

[00:01:41] Sickened by injustice he jumped bail

[00:01:47] In the Appalachian Mountains found a welcome

[00:01:52] Till his co-accused were both released from jail

[00:01:58] He came back expecting to get justice

[00:02:03] Special Branch took him from the plane

[00:02:08] For five years we've deprived him of his freedom

[00:02:14] The guilty jeer the innocent again

[00:02:19] Give the Wicklow Boy his freedom

[00:02:24] Give him back his liberty

[00:02:30] Ore are we going to leave him in chains

[00:02:35] While those who framed him up hold the key

[00:02:40] The people versus Kelly was the title

[00:02:46] Of the farce we staged at his appeal

[00:02:51] Puppets in well rehearsed collusion

[00:02:57] I often wonder how these men must feel

[00:03:02] As I walked past Portlaoise Prison

[00:03:07] Through concrete and steel a whisper came "My frame-up is almost completed

[00:03:18] I'm innocent Nicky Kelly is my name "

[00:03:23] Give the Wicklow Boy his freedom

[00:03:29] Give him back his liberty

[00:03:34] Ore are we going to leave him in chains

[00:03:39] While those who framed him up hold the key
