Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was born where the blackthorn
Snags your skirt and skin
Where the tide tears ragged at the quay
And the wind howls like kin
They said
"Girl
Keep your head down
Take your place
Stay small"
I laced my boots
Spat in my hands
Kicked straight through that wall
[Chorus]
I’m bold as the blackthorn
Wild as the sea
Stamp your feet and roar it out with me
Raise that glass
Let the rafters shake free
I won’t bend
I won’t bow
I won’t beg
I won’t plead
I’m bold as the blackthorn
Wild as the sea
[Verse 2]
Old Mag at the counter
Smiled round her chipped old cup
Said
"They’ll toast you when you’re quiet
Girl
They’ll curse you standing up"
So I climbed on the table
Slapped time on the wood
Sang my name like a battle cry
Till the whole room stood
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register
Handclaps only]
Who’s afraid of a woman shouting?
Who’s afraid of a storm on land?
[gang vocals]
If my voice cuts like heather and granite
You can learn
You can learn
You can learn where to stand
[Chorus]
