*Buy this song from CD Baby!*

We're on the one road, sharing the one load We're on the road to God knows where We're on the one road, it may be the wrong road But we're together now who cares? Northmen, Southmen, comrades all! Dublin, Belfast, Cork or Donegal! We're on the one road, swinging along Singin' a soldier's song! Though we've had our troubles now and then Now's the time to make them up again Sure aren't we all Irish anyhow? Now is the time to step together now We're on the one road, sharing the one load We're on the road to God knows where We're on the one road, it may be the wrong road But we're together now who cares? Northmen, Southmen, comrades all! Dublin, Belfast, Cork or Donegal! We're on the one road, swinging along Singin' a soldier's song! Tinker, tailor - every mother's son Butcher, baker - shouldering his gun Rich man, poor man - every man in line All together, just like Auld Lang Syne! We're on the one road, sharing the one load We're on the road to God knows where We're on the one road, it may be the wrong road But we're together now who cares? Northmen, Southmen, comrades all! Dublin, Belfast, Cork or Donegal! We're on the one road, swinging along Singin' a soldier's song! Night is darkness just before the dawn From dissensions, Ireland is reborn Soon, will all United Irishmen Make our land a Nation Once Again! We're on the one road, sharing the one load We're on the road to God knows where We're on the one road, it may be the wrong road But we're together now who cares? Northmen, Southmen, comrades all! Dublin, Belfast, Cork or Donegal! We're on the one road, swinging along Singin' a soldier's song!
