Lorca's Novena - The Pogues

Ignacio lay dying in the sand

A single red rose clutched in a dying hand

The women wept to see their hero die

And the big black birds gathered in the sky

Mother of all our joys mother of all our sorrows

Intercede with him tonight

For all of our tomorrows

The years went by and then the killers came

And took the men and marched them

Up the hill of pain

And Lorca the faggot poet they left till last

Blew his brains out with a pistol up his arse

Mother of all our joys mother of all our sorrows

Intercede with him tonight

For all of our tomorrows

The killers came to mutilate the dead

But ran away in terror to search the town instead

But Lorca's corpse as he had prophesied

Just walked away

And the only sound was the women

In the chapel praying

Mother of all our joys mother of all our sorrows

Intercede with him tonight

For all of our tomorrows
