Five In A Row - The Young Wolfe Tones

[Chorus]
Five in a row, five in a row,
"It couldn't be done now", they said long ago,
Let the hills sing the songs, let them sing high and low,
Oh, watch the dubs go, boys, five in a row.

[Verse]
History's page tells the tales of great games long ago,
Hefos and Geos and bold Hanahoe,
The footballing glory seen never before,
Was how Jim Gavins Dubs won five in a row.

[Chorus]
Five in a row, five in a row,
"It couldn't be done now", they said long ago,
Let the hills sing the songs, let them sing high and low,
Oh, watch the dubs go, boys, five in a row.

[Verse]
Now the Kingdom, they came and they tried long ago,
But frayed a defeat now of Shéa Darby toe,
Thy Kingdom come and thy will be done,
For the Dubs showed the ways boys, five in a row.

[Chorus]
Five in a row, five in a row,
"It couldn't be done now", they said long ago,
Let the hills sing the, songs let them sing high and low,
Oh, watch the dubs go, boys, five in a row.

[Verse]
There's Jemo and Deano and Kevin and Co,
And Dubs they have gone now where no others go,
They captured old Sam, boys, five times in a row,
Oh, the Dubs showed the ways boys, five in a row.

[Chorus]
Five in a row, five in a row,
"It couldn't be done now", they said long ago,
Let the hills sing the songs, let them sing high and low,
Oh, watch the dubs go, boys, five in a row.

[Verse]
Then here's to the team of the centaury so,
Like stars in the skies now, they all shine and glow,
And here's to Jim Gavin, who beat every foe,
Saying, "Boys, keep your cool now, you'll reap what you sow."

[Chorus]
Five in a row, five in a row,
"It couldn't be done now", they said long ago,
Let the hills sing the songs, let them sing high and low,
Oh, watch the dubs go, boys, five in a row.

[Verse]
Let the hills sing the songs, let them sing high and low,
Of Jacks and old Molly and fair CEO,
Of times that were there and were great long ago,
Yes, the Dubs showed the ways boys, five in a row.

[Chorus]
Five in a row, five in a row,
"It couldn't be done now", they said long ago,
Let the hills sing the songs, let them sing high and low,
Oh, watch the dubs go, boys, five in a row.

[Verse]
Now the Kingdom, they come and the Kingdom they go,
And Mayo god help us were cursed long ago,
But old Jim Gavin, has a sleeve full of tricks,
In the year 2020, we'll be going for six.

[Chorus]
Five in a row, five in a row,
"It couldn't be done now", they said long ago,
Let the hills sing the songs, let them sing high and low,
Oh, watch the dubs go, boys, five in a row.

[Chorus]
Five in a row, five in a row,
"It couldn't be done now", they said long ago,
Let the hills sing the songs, let them sing high and low,
Oh, watch the dubs go, boys, five in a row.

[Outro]
Five in a row, five in a row,
Five in a row, five in a row, fala, lali, di
Five in a row, five in a row,
Five in a row, five in a row, for Baile Átha Cliath.
