The people made a song about the arrest of Father Mc Fadden and this is some of it.
The day he was arrested
Was a Sunday after Mass
The man who arrested him
was sub inspector Martin
He had a broad sword in his hand
He says "you are my prisoner"

The placed him on a door and
to barracks they did go
The people boohed and groaned
at him as they were going along. - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
