1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Farewell our blessed Martin
It’s really been a blast
5 years of joy and happiness
But alas it couldn’t last

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 You took us on a journey
It really was a thrill
To Liverpool, Blackburn, Boavista
And who can forget Seville

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 You gave us back our dignity
You gave us back our pride
You gave us lot’s of Silverware
And a cracking Celtic side

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 The fifth estate in Scotland
Did their very best
To unsettle and belittle you
With fervour and with zest

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 You rose above the lot of them
You put them in their place
You exposed their lies and bigotry
Scotland’s real disgrace

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 We thank you for the memories
We thank you for the players
We thank for the adventure
For answering our prayers

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 My words can not really convey
Right now just how I feel
God Bless you and God keep you
Our hero – Martin O’Neill.
