Seven Mayo Finals Song Lyrics

“SEVEN MAYO FINALS” - Wavelength. Sung to the music of “Seven Drunken Nights”   
Lyrics by:  Regina Padden . More Gaelic Football Songs .
As I came home on a Sunday night in nineteen eighty nine 
Finnerty missed that goal poor man, no saving the game this time  
So I called my friends in The Sean Sibin and to them I did say 
The rebel team they popped our cork, made Larry’s curls turn grey  

CHORUS:        They said we’re cursed we’re cursed  
Ya silly auld fool and still you cannot see 
That’s a terrible spell they put on the Mayo team  
It’s many a year we’ve traveled up and down the track 
If we can’t win the Sam this year..... 
......  We’ll steal the feckin’ thing back!
 
As I came home on a Sunday night twas two years in a row 
Ninety six and ninety seven, Meath and Kerry stole the show 
So I called my friends in Hiney’s bar and to them I did say 
Our Mighty Mac they held him back and ruined John Maughan’s day                       
 
CHORUS:        They said were cursed were cursed……………
 
As I came home on those Sunday nights, zero 4 and zero 6 
The kingdom came and stole the game twice with new tactics 
I called my friends in Ryan’s Bar and to them I did say 
The points were down they stole the crown, Twice! that’s some display                   
 
CHORUS:        They said were cursed were cursed……………
 
As I came home on a Sunday night in two thousand and twelve 
Tears rolling down my eyes again, Donegal, left us on the shelf   
So I called my friends in McDonnell’s Bar and to them I did say 
Jimmy might be winning matches boys but someday we’ll have our way                   
 
CHORUS:        They said were cursed were cursed……………
 
As I came home on a Sunday night in twenty and thirteen
No Sam in hand, blame the curse again, the score it was obscene 
I called my friends The Porter House and to them I did say 
Those Dublin bucks had all the luck, though we had the two O’Sheas              
 
CHORUS:
They said we’ll win we’ll win ye silly auld fools, It’s time the world should see
With Mayo on the march again this year we will succeed
The Mayo team don’t run on luck, five connachts in a row
Forget the curse, bring back the Cup, lets sing it “UP MAYO”

(Final chorus to be added in the future  “They Said We Won We Won]
