Well, Dmy old man's a Provo with a beret and a gAun.
I haven't seen him lately. He's always on the rDun.
He looks so really trendy in his shades and DM boGots,
Far coAoler than those other dads in ties and shirts and sDuits.

The poDlice are hassling me each time that I go oAut.
They ask me if I've seen my Da and if he's been aDbout.
I say, "Mind your own business and just leave me alGone.
You shAower are only jealous ye have no fathers of your oDwn.

Well, Dmy old man's a Provo with a beret and a gAun.
I haven't seen him lately. He's always on the rDun.

On RDTE last Friday night, a cop came on to sAay,
"Please give us information about the IDRA".
He showed a Provo unit as clear as clear couldG be,
And IA know one was me daddy 'cause he stopped and waved at Dme!

Well, Dmy old man's a Provo with a beret and a gAun.
I haven't seen him lately. He's always on the rDun.
He looks so really trendy in his shades and DM boGots,
Far coAoler than those other dads in ties and shirts and sDuits.

My dDa, he's got me worried. I think he's going soAft.
There's half a tonne of fertiliser stored up in our lDoft.
"Are you gonna be a farmer, da?" I asked him just for fGun.
He saAys, "Don't be an eejit. Pass the coffee grinder, sDon."

At CDhristmas time, it's lonely when Daddy's not at hAome.
The police are watching everywhere. They've even tapped our phoDnes.
Last Christmas Eve, they staked out all our windows and our doGors,
Then climAbing down the chimney came a Provo Santa CDlaus.

JiDngle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle aDll the waDy.
GOh what fun it iDs to join PrA7ovisional IA7RA, hey!

My DDaddy's up in Long Kesh now. To me it's just not rAight.
I'll say a special prayer for him when I go to bed tonDight.
Today it was his birthday. I sent him in a caGke.
There's SAemtex in the candles. He'll be out before I wDake!
