There is an Ulster song called "A Father's Advice". Can someone put up the lyrics if they know them? A Mudcat search has revealed nothing. It is apparantly sung to the melody of "Fields Of Athenry".

You don't mean this one, do you? THE FATHER SONG

Wikipedia says "The fans of Rangers F.C. sing the song A FATHER'S ADVICE" to tune of THE FIELDS OF ATHENRY.

Could this be the one?

A FATHERS ADVICE

Said a father to his son
"Oh my boy the time has come"
Your country it is calling unto thee
For those rebels once again
To unite us is their aim
And together we must stand to keep her free

Chorus:
Remember, our fathers brave and bold
As they fought for Ulsters cause in far off lands
Oh my father said to me "I must join the Y.C.V"
With a rifle or a pistol in my hand

From Belfast to Armagh
Carade to old Crossgar
From Ballymena to old Omagh town
With their standards flying high
As it was in days gone by
We will rally round the flag for liberty

(chorus)

Come all you Volunteers
Let us fight and never fear
Just like our fathers did so long ago
Though i'm sixteen years of age
In the Volunteers i'll engage
Like our fathers did so many years ago

(chorus)


wr.
