Lyrics:  The Tale of Grace O’Malley

Let me tell you the tale
Of Grace O’Malley
Crimson red hair 
And the courage she carried
A nobleman’s daughter
A life full of rules
But fate took her hands 
And gave her sailing shoes
A pirate queen,  deadly  and fair…
In Gaelic her name wasn’t Grace
It’s Grainne of Clare  

Oh Grainne, Grainne of Clare
Who could lead men to battle, lead with a valkyrie stare
And you’d never give in
Though your life was at stake
You’d show us what valour could mean
For you’d rather die freely
Than live on your knees

V2
In a time when a girl 
Had no worth but breeding
You broke all the rules
And pierced every ceiling
You made all your fortunes
Then saved all your sons
And paid the Queens’ ransom
Then called all to arms
For bonnie Ireland needed you so
And your heart would never let go.. could never let go….

Oh Grainne, Grainne of Clare
Who could lead men to battle, 
Lead them with a with a valkyrie stare
And you’d never give in
Though your life was at stake
You’d show us what valour could mean
For you’d rather die freely
Than live on your knees
Oh you’d rather die freely 
Than live on your knees…

So now you know the tale.. of Grace O’Malley
Just a girl with red hair .. who was worth more than marriage
Now look at your daughters..  and tell them you love them
And treat them like equals and never condemn them
They’re all so much more.. they’re  worth so much more…
Like Grainne of Clare.

We’re not promised tomorrow
We need to live our lives right
I won’t barter or borrow
Our future for tonight

Never know what ahead of us
What lurks around the corner
Never know if our future
Is built on sand or mortar
I’m not wasting time, playing games
I won’t create a past, filled with shame

We’re not promised tomorrow
We need to live our lives right
I won’t barter or borrow
Our future for tonight

I don’t try to pretend
That I’m the greater person
I don’t judge, I don’t defend
I’m not better, I’m not worse
I don’t look at you like you failed
I’m not looking for souls to save

We’re not promised tomorrow
We need to live our lives right
I won’t barter or borrow
Our future for tonight

I won’t be paralysed
I have a goal and I’ll pursue it
And I am under no illusion
That I know best what to do
But I’ll proceed with a knowing air
No one knows what I choose not to share

Take your place, by my side
Don’t be scared, we’ll be fine
Don’t look left, don’t look right
Lock our dream in your sights

We’re not promised tomorrow
We need to live our lives right
I won’t barter or borrow
Our future for tonight
