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 on to the holy ground

Like our heroes did before

We will all be there in spirit

And when the battle’s o’er

With joy we’ll sup from the sacred 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 they’ll cross the Suir

A team of powerful men.

We’ll all be here 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.
