I want to know about the land from where we came from
The story about the old man, I never knew his name
I need to go to see that old house on the hill
Visit ghosts in empty rooms
The Celtic cross that bears my name
I need to know the truth did we really own a Castle?
Was my Grandad really King of the Clan so long ago?
All I want to know, all I want to know
All I want to know, what is my name?
I'm going to the old land to find my life before
We'll sing on steaming dunghills
Cry tears on the shore
I pray my dreams all come true
I pray my dreams all come true
I'll walk the path where the righteous men of wars before
Sing a song of freedom and believe it's really true
I'll read the signs at the crossroads in the village square
Turn left for Ballykissangel, turn right for Ballycoog
I need to know the truth, did they die for Ireland's glory?
The patriot game they played, all the stories we were told
All I want to know, all I want to know
All I want to know, what is my name?
