- (continued from previous page)III
When first the ball it was thrown in
Looked as though Cavan was there to win
But 'ere the half time whistle blew
The winners well the people knew
Chorus
IV
In the second half they had the ball all their own
When the cup in old Leitrim once more found a home
It belongs to the boys who kicked their best
And brought back laurels to the West.
