The Patriot Game
Last updated: 11.10.23
Just as with The Parting Glass, I first heard "The Patriot Game" on the same The Clancy Brothers LP record in the early sixties. Apart from it being a fine song by Dominic Behan, the line"Now as I lie here, my body all holes ..."really meant something to me as a young serviceman myself at that time. Those were the times of confrontation with Indonesia and the start of the ugliness in Vietnam.
The song may be found in 100 Irish Ballads Volume 2.
