on all Ireland final day

I'd stand out there in Croke Park

with a mighty part to play



wed come out of the tunnel

to a great big Galway roar

wed have our picture taken

head down to the goal



wed line up with the captain

and march behind the band

and when they played the anthem

wed face the flag above the stand



cos me heart is in maroon and white

I'll stick with what I know

maroon and white forever

no matter where I go



and when the ball comes towards me

I turn and head for goal

and i stick it in the corner

like a bullet hard and low



and i dreamt I'd hold the medal

so precious in my hand

with the people all around me

and the ghosts up in the stand



then on Monday evening

wed bring the cup back home

bonfires would be blazing

all along the road



cos me heart is in maroon and white

I'll stick with what i know

maroon and white forever

in hailstones, rain or snow



yes maroon and white forever

thats what i always say

maroon and white of Galway

forever and a day.
