The Boys in White and Blue

Paddy Cummins

(Sung to the air of: ‘The Holy Ground’

Good luck to our boys in White and Blue

A thousand times and more

As you march around the holy ground

Like our heroes did before

We will all be there behind you

And when the battle’s o’er

With joy we’ll sup from the lovely cup

And celebrate galore.

(Chorus)

Come on the boys in White and Blue

We’re on our way to glory

The Deise spark will light Croke Park

With flames of song and story.

 

And when our memories wander back

To the glory days of old

To our men so fine in fifty-nine

All heroes brave and bold

We played the Black and Amber

We beat them true and true

With glasses raised the bonfires blazed

For our boys in white and blue.

 

(Chorus)

Come on the boys in White and Blue

We’re on our way to glory

The Deise spark will light Croke Park

With flames of song and story.

 

So rise up Viking Waterford

We’re on our march again

With hearts so pure we’ll cross the Suir

To follow our great men

And all around our scenic shore

Dungarvan to Dunmore

We’ll pack our bags and wave our flags

And make old ‘Croker’ roar.

 

(Chorus)

Come on the boys in White and Blue

We’re on our way to glory

The Deise spark will light Croke park

With flames of song and story.

 

To all our Deise heroes

From ‘Brick’ to Dan the Man

To Derek, Pauric, Noel and Jake

And all our brilliant clan

We’ll all be there to cheer you on

To inspire and lift you up

With good old wine from fifty-nine

We’ll fill the McCarthy cup.

(Chorus)

Come on the boys in White and Blue

We’re on our way to glory

The Deise spark will light Croke Park

With flames of song and story.
