Campaign Anthem?

Many thanks to Alan from Burnley for this song which he would like someone to set a tune for. The words take on an even more important ring in the light of yesterday's court cases in Preston.

Once we had a happy homeland
Children danced, would play and sing
But there were those who would betray us
We did not foresee the pain they'd bring

We don't want no others' diamonds
We don't want no others' gold
We just want the Land God gave us
Want our country as of old

Now they flood our land with others
Let them steal and rape and kill
Though they try to bind and gag us
They'll never break our British will

We don't want no others' diamonds
We don't want no others' gold
We just want the Land God gave us
Want our country as of old.

A thousand years they tried to take us
Their hopes were dashed against our shores
Now traitors plan to cow and tame us
Give away what's mine and yours

We don't want no others' diamonds
We don't want no others' gold
We just want the Land God gave us
Want our country as of old

Traitors hold what brave men died for
But we've still got our British blood
So make a stand and send them homeward
Take our homeland back for good

We don't want no others' diamonds
We don't want no others' gold
We just want the Land God gave us
Want our country as of old
