[Verse 1: Shane MacGowan]
They wear green and they are beautiful, their hearts are filled with love
They're as pure as any lily and as gentle as the dove
They sing and cheer in harmony 'til their throats are cracked and sore
But there is no doubt you'll hear them shout when Jackie's heroes score
[Chorus]
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
And we'll follow Jack's heroes, whatever they do
[Verse 2: Ronnie Drew]
They'll come from Dublin and from Cork, from dear old Donegal
From London, Boston, and 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!
[Chorus]
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
And we'll follow Jack's heroes, whatever they do
[Chorus]
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
And we'll follow Jack's heroes, whatever they do
They wear green and they are beautiful, their hearts are filled with love
They're as pure as any lily and as gentle as the dove
They sing and cheer in harmony 'til their throats are cracked and sore
But there is no doubt you'll hear them shout when Jackie's heroes score
[Chorus]
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
And we'll follow Jack's heroes, whatever they do
[Verse 2: Ronnie Drew]
They'll come from Dublin and from Cork, from dear old Donegal
From London, Boston, and 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!
[Chorus]
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
And we'll follow Jack's heroes, whatever they do
[Chorus]
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
Too-ra-loo, too-ra-loo
And we'll follow Jack's heroes, whatever they do
