We've gathered here to bid adieu

Us boston boys, alas are few

Some from crosstown some from the coast

To give our skipper one last toast

We'll pour the good stuff round his casket

Drop some coin into the basket

Bow our heads and praise the lord

Then rouse ourselves and strike a chord...

Lets raise a glass and lift it up

Then sip from jimmy collins cup

And hail the lads that won the crown

That brought victory to our ground

Lets raise a glass and lift it up

Then sip from jimmy collins cup

And hail the lads that won the crown

While turning baseball upside down

We hit 'em hard, we hit 'em clean

The pitching of big bill dineen

Some legged a bunt, some hit them out

Remember old buck freeman's clouts

We'll sing of candy, cy and freddy

Patsy dougherty, broadway hobe,

Chick, and jack o'brein

Honus wagner sat there cryin'

Lets raise a glass and lift it up

Then sip from jimmy collins cup

And hail the lads that won the crown

That brought victory to our ground

Lets raise a glass and lift it up

Then sip from jimmy collins cup

And hail the lads that won the crown

While turning baseball upside down

Our days with you indeed were great

And now that you have crossed the plate

And scored that final run of life

We'll hug your kids and kiss your wife

And tell of how you played the game

And led us all to wealth and fame

We'll lift our heads with one loud voice

Pay homage to "the people's choice"

Lets raise a glass and lift it up

Then sip from jimmy collins cup

And hail the lads that won the crown

That brought victory to our ground

Lets raise a glass and lift it up

Then sip from jimmy collins cup

And hail the lads that won the crown

While turning baseball upside down
