Irish Song Lyrics 
from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
Celtic Overall This song simply tells the whole story of Celtic. 
In 1888 me boys a group of Irish men Had formed a brand new Celtic team in Glasgow's dark East End As brother Walfrid then addressed them in St. Mary's halls He said "Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic overall". 
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 overall". 
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 overall 
The early 20th century saw Glasgow Celtic win Six flags in a row, with Summers, Loney, Hays and Quinn Napoleon and the icicle with Adams big and tall Sang Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic overall 
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 overall 
All through the 20's we produced some men of great amaze McGrory, Wilson and McLean the Thomson's and McStay's When Patsy did somersault his feet around the ball He sang Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic overall 
The empire exhibition came to Glasgow on the Clyde As had they tried the Sunderland and Hearts were swept aside The Everton their hearts were broke as Divers, Crum and all Sang Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic overall 
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 overall". 
In 1953 the Coronation Cup was won Then Celtic 7 Rangers 1 was Hampden in the sun When Bertie Peacock held aloft the cup we heard him call He said "Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic overall". 
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 overall 
We've Protestants and Catholics here together once again Just like the days yore with the United Irish men 9 in a row it goes to show the greatest team of all it's Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic Overall 
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 moo croidhe, I long to see the writing on the wall Saying Celtic first and Celtic last and Celtic overall
