Lyrics

[Music & words: kf]

Remember well the 30th of january
The feeling of dread that was in the air
The people marched for their right to equality
They only wanted to be treated fair
Shots were fired my a mindless military
The people ran they were unarmed
Across the world we will read of derry
And those who died by oppressive hands

13 people lost their lives that sunday
Women, children and innocent men
Many wounded lay crying in agony
The knights of malta attended them
And so began the government cover up
And so began the lies and deceit
Soldiers statement would be changed and torn up
No reports would come from men on the street

As the years went by the people began to talk
The hidden crimes were now being told
Innocent protestors - shot in back
Left to die in the winter cold
The bullets used had all been tampered
Maximum injury would come from them
This tyranny will not go un-noticed
Our day will come again
