Colin Brady writes”
My girlfriend’s father’s best mate Pat Good wrote this song for the Irish football team 26 years ago. The cover alone is fantastic (drawn by my gf’s dad Gerry Lawes and has Jack Charlton shaking hands with auld Pope JP) but the tune is a gas reminder of the glory days.
He’s followed it up all these years later…
….with the new tune Swedes, Sprouts & Spaghetti (ooh la la).
