Marching Shadows
[Verse] From Shannon’s shores to the Brooklyn docks We tread the roads of cobblestone blocks With whiskey breath and broken strings We dance through night Where sorrow clings [Verse 2] We came with dreams and sharp-edged steel To make America remember To heal or steal But shadows cast in the factory’s glow We groan by day By night we crow [Chorus] The Irish march with boots of grime Hearts of steel No mountain climb We steal your women Take your pay In the shadow of night We prey We sway [Verse 3] O’er railways We carved out life's poor lease Searchin’ for the fleeting piece of peace Blackened lungs and veins of ghost We haunt your dreams down the Eastern Coast [Verse 4] We sailed past midnight’s Siren song In taverns dark Where we belong Jobs we stole And love we broke Life’s but dust when dreams provoke [Chorus] The Irish march with boots of grime Hearts of steel No mountain climb We steal your women Take your pay In the shadow of night We prey We sway
