Lyrics Fearless and Brave - Paddy and the Rats , The Rumpled

Grace O'Malley was her name
From home she'd often stray
And a terror she became
To all who crossed her way
Fearless and brave
Her spirit never swayed
The legend of the pirate queen of Galway Bay
The story it is told
While not yet very old
Her fate she would refuse
To go and chase her muse
The queen of all her kind oh' the fairest o' her breed
To man nor god no she would not heed

Hey ho, Grace so fair
(Hey ho)
Hey ho, Grace so fine

The men with whom she sailed
Have never to this day
Seen her courage and beauty
And pride all the same
From an Island west of Clare
She'd sail and make them pay
The legend of the pirate queen of Galway Bay
Neither then nor today
Is it safe for us to say
That a lady such as she
Could ever come to be
From her fate as a flower in a field of men
No rules, no roles, no she would not bend

Hey ho, Grace so fair
(Hey ho)
Hey ho, Grace so fine
Hey ho, Grace so fair
(Hey ho)
Hey ho, Grace so fine
Hey ho, Grace so fair
(Hey ho)
Hey ho, Grace so fine
