We've gathered here, to bid adieu
Us Boston boys alas are few
Some from crosstown some from 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
(Chorus)
Let?s raise a glass and lift it up
Then sip from Jimmy Collins? cup
And hail the lads that won the crown
They brought victory to our grounds
Let?s 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
Our days with you, indeed were great
And now that you have crossed the plate
