Lyrics:

Walking down a country lane
Auroraborealis babe
Dancing in a cornfield
Under the castle

Sun shining through the leaves
On your hair in an olden field
We’ve gathered a golden yield
This, I’ll remember

The boys of the GAA
Won’t scare me, not today
As we cross the river
Home

A summer’s day far from home
A chef, a game, a win for some
Later on we’ll all be
Gone.
