      @@camerondiflo3828 this song was (probably) written during the Irish war of independence. During the Civil war the Black and tans were a British paramilitary forces trying to stop the nationalists and committed war crimes. The line means that you show your medals to your wife during WW1 in flanders since all of the soldiers in the black and tans were WW1 veterans.

    Lyrics!!!
    I was born on a Dublin street where the Royal drums did beat
    And those loving English feet they walked all over us
    Oh and every single every night when me da would come home tight
    He'd invite the neighbors out with this fine chorus
    Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man
    Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
    Oh and how the IRA made you run like hell away
    From the green and lovely lakes of Killashandra
    Come tell us how you slew them old Arabs two by two
    Like the Zulus they had spears and bows and arrows
    Oh, how you bravely faced one with your sixteen pounder gun
    And you frightened them poor natives to the marrow
    Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man
    Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
    Oh and how the IRA made you run like hell away
    From the green and lovely lakes of Killashandra
    Come let us hear you tell how you slammed the great Pernell
    And thought him well and truly persecuted
    Where are the smears and jeers that you loudly let us hear
    When our leaders of '16 were executed?
    Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man
    Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
    Oh and how the IRA made you run like hell away
    From the green and lovely lakes of Killashandra
    Oh the time is coming fast and I think those days are here
    When those English Johnny's heels will run before us
    Oh if there be a need then our kids will say 'godspeed' with a verse or two of singing this fine chorus
    Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man
    Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
    Oh and how the IRA made you run like hell away
    From the green and lovely lakes of Killashandra
    Come out ye Black and Tans, come out and fight me like a man
    Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
    Oh and how the IRA made you run like hell away
    From the green and lovely lakes of Killashandra

    These days, it's increasingly rare to find artists who haven't been corrupted by the system and don't just kiss up to it. However, I recently stumbled upon Seth Staton Watkins, and I'm not only captivated by his incredible vocal abilities and sound, but also by his humanity and activism for what's right. Such integrity is rare in today's world, where many artists seem to sell their souls to blend in with the corrupted system controlled by powerful lobbyists. I have two loves: Palestine and Ireland.

    This is a pretty damn good version. I like how you didn't "modernize" the old lyrics in terms of how they change "da" and other words. The harmonizing chorus echoes a bit too much sometimes due to the effect but that effect is great on the solo verses. I think *The Maguire Brothers* have the best version. It's got that *oomf* even though the accent is lacking. The additional lyrics added in that version are a welcome addition too as they add other warcrimes to the list.

      @@Imyourhuckleberry01 Changing "Slander" to "Slew" is simply a figurative way of emphasizing what he endured.
      Referencing Derry, another focal point of Irish-British tension, particularly around events like Bloody Sunday (1972) during The Troubles is a great way of bridging the gap of the older Irish-British conflicts to the more recent ones.
      Most importantly the whole song emphasizes the righteous anger rather than just singing a song like so many others do.

    I’ve been in War fighting next to British Soldiers and Royal Marines, superb fighting men they all were. But this song awakens something ancient in my soul. My Grandfather was Scottish, he told us stories and legends, I suppose I listened more then I remembered. Seth you’re amazing, you get a response out of my brain that doesn’t happen very often. Some of the songs you sing and the way you sing them just get me fired up Brother. Kind of like when the Coach would get us going before a football game.
