Here ye go// from the CharlieAnd the Bhoys site,
CELTIC OVER ALL
In 1888 me boys a group of Irish men
Had formed a brand new Football team in Glasgow’s dark East End
And Brother Walfrid then addressed them in St. Mary’s hall
He said Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Over All
The Rangers club the came to open dear old Paradise
And Neil McCallum scored the first and then they realised
The game was o’er and then James Kelly handed him the ball
He said Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Over All
In 1892 the cup was won on Ibrox soil
The Queens Park team had no reply, they met with big Dan Doyle
We celebrated all night long the Irish one and all
We sang Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Over All
The early 20th century saw Glasgow Celtic win
Six flags in a row, with Sommers, Loney, Hays and Quinn
Napoleon and the Icicle with Adams big and tall
Sang Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Over All
The war to end all wars was on but Celtic did not sigh
The Easter rising of 16 had kept our spirits high
With Sonny Jim and Charlie Shaw and sniper Jim McColl
Singing Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Over All
Those bigots from the SFA were plain to be seen
They tried to take away our flag of orange white and green
The banner stays Sir Robert says in answer to our call
He said Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Over All
Bill Shankly said to Stein one afternoon in Lisbon town
Hey Jock now your immortal with your European crown
All Glasgow was a sea of green that night as I recall
We sang Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Over All
Now in a new millennium we’re yearning for a team
To match our brand new stadium, I hope it’s not a dream
Oh Gradh mo Croidhe, I long to see the writing on the wall
Saying Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Over All
