Heroes, our heroes, our boys in Blue Our tribe, our warriors, hill 16 on a sunny Sunday Like nowhere
else on earth, the greatest show on earth Up the Dubs, in the blood, me uncle never missed a match He was known to leave
a wedding early for The Dubs He's there in spirit now on hill 16, And when they win '' Smiling '', True blue true
blood, 'Cause hill 16 has never seen the likes of Heffo's Army. Pints, match day, family
superstition, his lucky jersey Lucky bra, praying it doesn't rain, Slagging cluchies with their ''hang'' sandwiches, The
Dubs will shut them up. Walking down Jones Road, come on you boys in blue Walking into town, flags comming out of every
car No better sight than Croke Park than the Dubs hand passing their way to goal Granda screaming at the telly,
sit down.
The passion the loyalty, the most loyal fans And they earned every one, Dublin,
the Dubs The sea of blue, going through the turnstiles on your dad's sholders, standing next to the brothers and
sisters you never met We're the 16th man, hats scarfs and head bands Thinking of me da, he followed them all over and
shed many a tear of sadness and joy.
I get goose-bumps when the Dubs come out on the pitch The
whole city comes together, laughs in the stands Caught on camera at half time, where my grand da stood Where my daughter
stands in her blue, We put our 3 year old nephew in the Sam Tears in my eyes, Sackville for me nerves Quinn's for
the celebration, proud to be a Dub The Artane Boys Band, the parade of teams, that roar The tears are crying when Cluxton
scores the winner It's family, our family, up the Dubs.
