This Dsong I will sing of a Bmbrave young Irishman
In the Astruggle for freedom to Gfree IreDland
He Djoined the IRA and Bmbecame a volunteer
To his Acomrades in arms he Gnever showed no Dfear.

VolunDteer Gerard Casey freedom Bmfighter to all
To the Aplight of his country he Ganswered the Dcall
And when Don active service he'd Bmnever ask why
Our Abrave volunteer was Gnot afraid to Ddie


Ref. Oh, this Dman from North Antrim, oh, I'm Bmsure you've all heard tell
Gerard ACasey's the name, RaGsharkin he did Ddwell.
Oh, he Dfought for his country and he Bmgave up his life.
For his Afamily and friends and Gdarling young Dwife.



In Dhis younger days he lived Bmlife to the full
Playing AGaelic Football Gthings were not so Ddull.
DWorking with his father while he Bmserved out his time
To set AIreland free, to Ghim it was no Dcrime.

No Dstranger to harassment at the Bmhands of the foe
He was Atortured and arrested to GCastlereagh he Dgo
Oh, Dthreatened by imprisonment and Bmdeath in the end
Our Abrave volunteer to Gthem he would not Dbend.


Ref. Oh, this Dman from North Antrim, oh, I'm Bmsure you've all heard tell
Gerard ACasey's the name, RaGsharkin he did Ddwell.
Oh, he Dfought for his country and he Bmgave up his life.
For his Afamily and friends and Gdarling young Dwife.


Cruel DBritish assassins in the Bmcover of dark
AHeaded for Rasharkin Gonto Shamrock DPark
DWith their guns of terror they Bmburst through the door
And the Acowards went looking for the Gfamily man of Dfour.

They Dfound him with his wife and his Bmbaby girl in bed
They Asprayed those English bullets and Gleft Gerard Casey Ddead
The Dcowards had fled but the sadness that Bmnight
For his Awife and young family would Gkeep on the Dfight.


Ref. Oh, this Dman from North Antrim, oh, I'm Bmsure you've all heard tell
Gerard ACasey's the name, RaGsharkin he did Ddwell.
Oh, he Dfought for his country and he Bmgave up his life.
For his Afamily and friends and Gdarling young Dwife.


His Dfuneral at St. Mary's dark Bmforces of the crown
A Alarge crowds defied them as the Grain lashed Ddown
The Dpiper he played, oh, fareBmwell at the grave
In Amemory of Gerard who was the Gbravest of the Dbrave.

Our Dgallant volunteer from North BmAntrim Brigade
And the Arain swept the graveyard was Gwhere he was Dlaid
VolunDteers who've gone before him who Bmlie in a plot
Gerard ACasey and their names will Gnever be forDgotten


Ref. Oh, this Dman from North Antrim, oh, I'm Bmsure you've all heard tell
Gerard ACasey's the name, RaGsharkin he did Ddwell.
Oh, he Dfought for his country and he Bmgave up his life.
For his Afamily and friends and Gdarling young Dwife.

Ref. Oh, this Dman from North Antrim, oh, I'm Bmsure you've all heard tell
Gerard ACasey's the name, RaGsharkin he did Ddwell.
Oh, he Dfought for his country and he Bmgave up his life.
For his Afamily and friends and Gdarling young Dwife.
