      //LYRICS//
      From Bray in the County Wicklow boys, a hero he was born
      A new day was dawning, with a red sky for the morn
      From an early age he started out to join in the fight
      Against the British and the bourgeois, he swore he'd see them right
      Then he led the fight in Derry, and his actions never failed
      But captured back in Wicklow he was sent to Mountjoy gaol
      At the Curragh there he studied, that the right-wing was to blame
      A Socialist Republic, his dream would be his aim
      For Costello is our leader
      Won't you come and take a stand
      Like Costello our fine hero
      Gave his life for the working man
      He gave his life for the working man
      On the 10th day of December, in the year of '74
      He formed the RSM and brought the Far-Left to the fore
      He soon became it's leader and he raised the Starry Plough
      For the workers, and the people, sure they had their army now
      To follow our James Connolly, that was to be their line
      Cause' the genius of his politics were never lost in time
      To carry on the struggle lads until the present day
      To help the proletariat who never will dismay
      For Costello is our leader
      Won't you come and take a stand
      Like Costello our fine leader
      Gave his life for the working man
      He gave his life for the working man
      So heres to our Boy General, from Wicklow's hills he came
      He gave us all his vision and Costello was his name
      So raise the scarlet standard boys and keep her flying high
      The impact of his legacy is one they can't deny
      For Costello is our leader
      Won't you come and take a stand
      Like Costello our fine leader
      Gave his life for the working man
      For Costello is our leader
      Won't you come and take a stand
      For Costello is our leader
      Gave his life for the working man
      Gave his life for the working man
      Gave his life for the working man
