[Verse 1]
Johnny’s sittin’ by the fire, tear in his eye,
Thinkin’ ‘bout seven lads, nae reason why.
Innocent men, caught for nae wrong,
Were locked up far away, not where they belong.

[Chorus]
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows way nae height,
Seven wee men, nae guilt in their soul,
Caught in a lie, payin' the toll.
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows he'd rewrite,
They did nae wrong, good wee lads at heart,
Ended up behind bars, torn apart.
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows...

[Verse 2]
They were nae criminals, nae cause for blame,
Someone pointed fingers, they took the shame.
Johnny’s got their backs, he’ll fight ‘til the end,
Those seven wee men, he'll always defend.

[Chorus]
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows way nae height,
Seven wee men, nae guilt in their soul,
Caught in a lie, payin' the toll.
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows he'd rewrite,
They did nae wrong, good wee lads at heart,
Ended up behind bars, torn apart.
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows...

[Bridge]
Aye, they were small, but their wee hearts were grand,
Never hurt anyone, they’d always lend a hand.
They got locked up, in a cage of lies,
Johnny sings tae the stars, fightin’ through the cries (through the criessssssssss)

[Chorus]
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows way nae height,
Seven wee men, nae guilt in their soul,
Caught in a lie, payin' the toll.
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows he'd rewrite,
They did nae wrong, good wee lads at heart,
Ended up behind bars, torn apart.
Seven shadows in the moonlight,
Seven shadows...

[Outro]
Johnny’s wishes he could go back, rewrite historyyyy,
For the seven wee men, it’s all Johnny can see.
They were innocent lads, and he’d make it right,
Singin’ for their freedom, under the moonlight.
