Jack's Heroes |
They wear green |
And they are beautiful |
And their hearts are filled with love |
They’re as pure as any lily |
And as gentle as the dove |
They’ll sing and cheer in harmony |
Till their throats are cracked & sore |
But there is no doubt |
You’ll hear them shout |
When Jackie’s heroes score |
Too-ra-loo Too-ra-loo |
And we’ll follow Jack’s heroes |
Whatever they do They’ll come from Dublin |
And from Cork, from dear old Donegal, |
From London, Boston, & New York, |
From anywhere at all, |
From Parramatta to Fermoy, |
Strabane to Skibereen |
(And will) the shout go up When the World Cup |
Is raised on Stephens Green |
(Yes it will) |
And when we’re there in Italy |
On Sardinia’s sunny shore |
We’ll be the boys you’ll want to see |
The boys you’ll all adore |
We’ll play like perfect gentlemen |
To win, to lose, to draw |
For we’re here to take the World Cup |
To Paddy’s shamrock shore |
