No Pope of Rome

by THE THORNLIE BOYS

Oh give me a home,
Where there's no Pope of Rome
Where there's nothing but Protestants stay.
Where seldom is heard a discouraging word
And flute bands play The Sash every day.

No, no Pope of Rome
No chapels to sadden my eyes
No nuns and no priests
No Rosary beads
Every day is the 12th of July

Up a wee narrow close
Just by Brigton Cross
Aye it's there the place we call home
On the twelth there we join
To remember The Boyne
And to pray let's have no Pope of Rome

No, no Pope of Rome
No chapels to sadden my eyes
No nuns and no priests
No Rosary beads
Every day is the 12th of July
