Rebels Of The Sacred Heart Lyrics - Drunken Lullabies - Flogging Molly

Now I'm aimin' for heaven 

But probably wind up down in hell 

Where upon this alter I will hang my guilt ridden head 

But it's time I'll take before I begin 

Three sheets to the wind, three sheets to the wind 

Yeah, it's time, I'll take before I begin 

Three sheets to the wind, three sheets to the wind 

Rebels are we, though heavy our hearts shall always be 

Ah, no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

I said no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

Terrified of the open road 

Yeah, where it leads ya never know 

But rest assured he'll be on you back 

Yeah, the holy ghost through his tounges in black 

As the band dog howls and the young girl cries 

The blessed virgin in her proud dad's eye 

The albatross hangin' round your neck 

Is the cross you bare for your sins he bleeds 

Rebels are we, though heavy our hearts shall always be 

Ah, no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

I said, no ball or chain, no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the Sacred Heart 

Genuflect all you refugees who fled the land 

Now on guilt you kneel 

And say a prayer for those left behind 

From beyond the pale to the northern sky 

So you saved your shillins and your last six pence 

'Cause in god's name they built a barbed wire fence 

Be glad you sailed for a better day 

But don't forget there'll be hell to pay 

Rebels are we, though heavy our hearts shall always be 

Ah, no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

I said no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

Reserrection no protection all things life must be 

Ah no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

Now I bless me father for I have sinned 

But it's the same old story again and again and again 

Ah well, such is the bread of an everyday life 

From mornin' to noon to this shadowless-night 

Ah well, such is the bread of an everyday life 

From mornin' to noon to this shadowless-night 

Rebels are we, though heavy our hearts shall always be 

Ah, no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

I said no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

Rebels are we, though heavy our hearts shall always be 

Ah, no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

I said no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

I said no ball or chain no prison shall keep 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart 

We're the rebels of the sacred heart
