This is the U2 version...

Yes...

I can�t believe the news today
Oh, I can�t close my eyes and make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...

�cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...

Broken bottles under children�s feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I won�t heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday bloody sunday...)
(allright lets go!)

And the battle�s just begun
There�s many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart

Sunday, bloody sunday
Sunday, bloody sunday

How long...
How long must we sing this song?
How long? how long...

�cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...
Tonight...

Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
Tonight
Sunday, bloody sunday (tonight)
(come get some!)

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
I wipe your tears away
(sunday, bloody sunday)
I wipe your blood shot eyes
(sunday, bloody sunday)

Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
Sunday, bloody sunday (sunday, bloody sunday)
(here I come!)

And it�s true we are immune
When fact is fiction and tv reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

The real battle yet begun (sunday, bloody sunday)
To claim the victory jesus won (sunday, bloody sunday)
On...

Sunday bloody sunday
Sunday bloody sunday...

This is John Lennons Version... much more stirring...

Well it was Sunday bloody Sunday
When they shot the people there
The cries of thirteen martyrs
Filled the Free Derry air
Is there any one amongst you
Dare to blame it on the kids?
Not a soldier boy was bleeding
When they nailed the coffin lids!


Sunday bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day!


You claim to be majority
Well you know that it's a lie
You're really a minority
On this sweet emerald isle
When Stormont bans our marches
They've got a lot to learn
Internment is no answer
It's those mothers' turn to burn!


Sunday bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day!


Sunday bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day!


You anglo pigs and scotties
Sent to colonize the North
You wave your bloody Union Jack
And you know what it's worth!
How dare you hold to ransom
A people proud and free
Keep Ireland for the Irish
Put the English back to sea!


Sunday bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day!


Well, it's always bloody Sunday
In the concentration camps
Keep Falls Road free forever
From the bloody English hands
Repatriate to Britain
All of you who call it home
Leave Ireland to the Irish
Not for London or for Rome!


Sunday bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day!


Sunday bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day!


Sunday bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day!


Sunday bloody Sunday
Bloody Sunday's the day!

Also it is referred to as Give Ireland Back To The Irish... think that these lyrics are already posted in this forum however... but thought I would go ahead and put them in here for you :) How this was of some help to you Kev ;)

"Give Ireland Back to the Irish" is a different song entirely. I have a version of the song sung by Paul McCartney. The chorus goes something like (I'm at work and writing this from memory) "Give Ireland back to the Irish, don't make us have to take it away. Give Ireland back to the Irish, make Ireland Irish today."

Yes I know Werewolf ;) But there are still some that referrer to it by that. You have to understand that most don't even listen to that music here. It is a very few select people that care to. most see the music as something our nans or grampas listened to and was forced on us at times. For a while I refused to listen... kinda had a rebellious streak ;) For some reason... I grew up .. still a rebel... but now is a true one :) There are loads of people that make commons mistakes... and if you want I could show you to where you could find people that think London's Derry and Back Home in Derry are the same lol Guess those I know better than most :( anyhoo... need more :D 's again so I'll see ya soon ;)
