Election Song (continued)
“Come all you Irish Rate-payers I mean to let you hear,”
(continued from previous page)V
May God be with those Ministers may the Heavens be their bed
For they'll have good times in Ireland when the farmers are all dead
They will own these splendid farms with mansions and grand gates
Tis then they'll preach "economy" when they themselves must pay the Rates.
