  1. Local Songs - The Rovers

    Share Share Post
    Come forth my gallant Rovers,
    And don't be daunted boys.
    Cross hands on your native sod,
    With the famous "Fontenoys"
    II
    There is nothing to prevent you boys,
    In jerseys red and green.
    To bring the laurels back again
    To dear old Inniskeen.
    This song was made by John McEneany, Shellagh, Co. Louth, He made it, because Inniskeen had a great football team.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
