  • The Wild Swans Dancing at the Crossroads
    Well I remember as a young boy
    The beginning of september
    We were standing at the station
    Waiting for a train.
    There was priests and christian brothers
    There was nuns and reverend mothers
    There was guards and drunks and others
    But everyone was just the same
    Well they came from Enniscorthy
    From New Ross and Ferns and Gorey
    There was busses from Bunclody
    There was horses carts and all
    And when they steped out on the platform
    They were shouting and screaming
    And as they carried LARRY MURPHY
    He looked 25 feet tall
    So whats the story MARTIN STOREY
    Now WEXFORD'S really bound for glory
    And when at last the cup was lifted
    They said we brought it home for you
    CHORUS
    In every bar down on the main street
    They were hanging from the rafters
    And they sang the boys of WEXFORD
    Like it was going out of style
    All the bingo halls were empty
    And all the Masses finished early
    Sure no one ever saw the likes of
    Since the time of JFK
    And when we look at young OGORMAN
    And through the mid field he was stormin
    And then the Cusack Stand erupted
    When he scored from 60 yards
    CHORUS
    And I think of GEORGE O CONNOR
    So many said he was a goner
    But when he stood up in the HOGAN
    I even saw an old man cry
    CHORUS
    Damian Fitzhenry,Ger Cush,Sean Flood,Rod Guiney
    ,Liam Dunn,Colm Kehoe
    Billy Byrne, Martin Storey John OConner
    Tom Dempsey,George O'Connor,Adrian Fenlon
    and
    Larry O'Gorman
    Rory McCarthy,Larry Murphy,Garry Laffan,
    Eamon Scallan,Dave Guiney,Declan Ruth,
    Jim Byrne,Shean Carley,Paul Finn,Tom Kehoe, are the team,
    and the man that dared to dream his name was
    LIAM GRIFFIN
    Seamus Kavanagh,Joe Kerns,MJ Reck and all the rest
    the brave young men of 96 will be remembered with the best
    RACKARD,QUIGLEY,WHEELER,DORAN BUGGY,MURPHY,NOLAN,FLOOD
    And the names I can't recall WEXFORD heroes one and all

That way this song will work with some slight modifications like the players names and the fact that we dont use horse drawn carriages much anymore. I'm by no means a fortune teller, but right here, right now I am saying. Wexford will win again in 2026.

    Doing a disco in a Wexford pub one night and I played this. The place went mad as usual. 2 lads from Wicklow came up and asked me to play it again because they had never seen any song get such a reaction before. Naturally I obliged and once again it had the desired effect !
