Breakout! Lyrics - Singles - Down By Law

time to breakout 

now it's time to go 

try to breakout or you'll never know 

so have a drink or 3 and sing with me 

wild rover 

roam 'til you're free 

in the days of 1916, back before the dawn of time 

when i was just a gleam to my grandpa before 

well he found a little lassie 

to whom, he took a fancy 

and they had my mum and then they had some more 

and he told me with a grin 

as he took a sip of gin 

someday son you'll breathe free celtic air 

and it may not be today 

but look now that's o.k. 

cause someday son the soldiers will 

all march away 

try to breakout now 

it's time to go 

try to breakout or you'll never know 

so have a drink or 3 

and sing with me 

scotland, ireland and wales must be free 

try to breakout 

or you'll never know 

try to breakout 

or you'll never really know 

time to breakout 

or you'll never really know 

time to breakout 

or you'll never really 

never really know 

now every boy around the world 

dreams he could save the day 

be the hero, get the girland walk away 

now grandpa isn't here today 

and the soldiers are still there 

but i love an irish girl who took my name 

and we'll raise our kids to know 

the tales of scotland's woes 

and hope that someday they will 

breathe free air 

and it may not be today 

but look now that's o.k. 

cause someday son the soldiers will 

all march away
