[Chorus]
Jacks and Mollys roaring on the hill,
The super sub McManamon is going for the kill,
Rosie from Tralee, crying Kevin's going through,
The Kingdom has fallen to the Bonnie Boys in Blue.
[Verse]
Now come all ye sporting Paddy's have I a tale for you,
The mighty Gaels of Dublin, the Bonnie Boys in Blue,
It's of a Semi-Final and Croker was the scene,
With the Navy-Blue of Dublin now and Kerry's Gold and Green.
[Chorus]
Jacks and Mollys roaring on the hill,
The super sub McManamon is going for the kill,
Rosie from Tralee, crying Kevin's going through,
The Kingdom has fallen to the Bonnie Boys in Blue.
[Verse]
Three Eleven now for Kerry, it's the minute sixty nine,
The Kerrymen are screaming, "Blow the whistle up for time",
Up pops Kevin and his speed is like a jet,
He kicks a mighty bomber and he lands it in the net.
[Chorus]
Jacks and Mollys roaring on the hill,
The super sub McManamon is going for the kill,
Rosie from Tralee, crying Kevin's going through,
The Kingdom has fallen to the Bonnie Boys in Blue.
[Verse]
Jimmy Barry Murphy thinks he has it all,
Since he beat the Hurlers with the small ball,
Big balls, small balls, the super Jacks are back,
And it's Kerry for your holidays and Dublin for the craic.
[Chorus]
Jacks and Mollys roaring on the hill,
The super sub McManamon is going for the kill,
Rosie from Tralee, crying Kevin's going through,
The Kingdom has fallen to the Bonnie Boys in Blue.
[Verse]
Eighty thousand shouting on the hill and on the stand,
The green grass of Croker never looked so grand,
Sam Maguire now knocking at the door,
And Bernard Brogan scoring as his father did before.
[Chorus]
Jacks and Mollys roaring on the hill,
The super sub McManamon is going for the kill,
Rosie from Tralee, crying Kevin's going through,
The Kingdom has fallen to the Bonnie Boys in Blue.
[Verse]
Mayo god help us, waiting sixty years,
With the 'Curse of Swinford' ringing in their ears,
They'll have to wait longer for Sam to see the West,
For Sam is bound for Dublin and he's staying with the best,
The Gooch thought quietly, "Sure the game is in the bag",
But Dublin now are steaming, Kerry couldn't wag,
Jim Gavin writing calmly on the line,
Victory for the Dubs as the whistle blows for time.
[Chorus]
Jacks and Mollys roaring on the hill,
The super sub McManamon is going for the kill,
Rosie from Tralee, crying Kevin's going through,
The Kingdom has fallen to the Bonnie Boys in Blue.
