On the One Road

We're on the one road sharing the one load We're on the road to God knows where We're on the one road It may be the wrong road But we're together now, who cares? North men, South men, comrades all Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal We're on the one road, swingin' along Singin' a soldier's song Though we've had our troubles now and then Now is the time to make them up again Sure aren't we all Irish anyhow Now is the time to step together now We're on the one road sharing the one load We're on the road to God knows where We're on the one road It may be the wrong road But we're together now, who cares? North men, South men, comrades all Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal We're on the one road, swingin' along Singin' a soldier's song Tinker, tailor, every watcher's son Butcher, baker, shouldering his gun Rich man, poor man, every man in line All together just like Auld Lang Syne We're on the one road sharing the one load We're on the road to God knows where We're on the one road It may be the wrong road But we're together now, who cares? North men, South men, comrades all Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal We're on the one road, swingin' along Singin' a soldier's song Night is darkness just before the dawn From descensions, Ireland is reborn Soon we'll all be United Irishmen Make our land a nation once again We're on the one road sharing the one load We're on the road to God knows where We're on the one road It may be the wrong road But we're together now, who cares? North men, South men, comrades all Dublin, Belfast, Cork or Donegal We're on the one road, swingin' along Singin' a soldier's song
