- The Wild Swans Dancing at the Crossroads
Well I remember as a young boy
The beginning of september
We were standing at the station
Waiting for a train.
There was priests and christian brothers
There was nuns and reverend mothers
There was guards and drunks and others
But everyone was just the same
Well they came from Enniscorthy
From New Ross and Ferns and Gorey
There was busses from Bunclody
There was horses carts and all
And when they steped out on the platform
They were shouting and screaming
And as they carried LARRY MURPHY
He looked 25 feet tall
So whats the story MARTIN STOREY
Now WEXFORD'S really bound for glory
And when at last the cup was lifted
They said we brought it home for you
CHORUS
In every bar down on the main street
They were hanging from the rafters
And they sang the boys of WEXFORD
Like it was going out of style
All the bingo halls were empty
And all the Masses finished early
Sure no one ever saw the likes of
Since the time of JFK
And when we look at young OGORMAN
And through the mid field he was stormin
And then the Cusack Stand erupted
When he scored from 60 yards
CHORUS
And I think of GEORGE O CONNOR
So many said he was a goner
But when he stood up in the HOGAN
I even saw an old man cry
CHORUS
Damian Fitzhenry,Ger Cush,Sean Flood,Rod Guiney
,Liam Dunn,Colm Kehoe
Billy Byrne, Martin Storey John OConner
Tom Dempsey,George O'Connor,Adrian Fenlon
and
Larry O'Gorman
Rory McCarthy,Larry Murphy,Garry Laffan,
Eamon Scallan,Dave Guiney,Declan Ruth,
Jim Byrne,Shean Carley,Paul Finn,Tom Kehoe, are the team,
and the man that dared to dream his name was
LIAM GRIFFIN
Seamus Kavanagh,Joe Kerns,MJ Reck and all the rest
the brave young men of 96 will be remembered with the best
RACKARD,QUIGLEY,WHEELER,DORAN BUGGY,MURPHY,NOLAN,FLOOD
And the names I can't recall WEXFORD heroes one and all - Спорт
Only GAA song ever to reach number 1 in the irish charts
Yhyyyyyyyyyyu
@Lennon Swan knocked off the spice girls from the top
Is that true? Wow! 🥺
I think Jimmy's winning matches did aswell
Is that actually true? Oh wow. I must say it is some tune. I am a proud Offaly man, but I must say 'Offaly rover' is pure muck compared to this song 😂
100 years ago, great men made a stand against an empire. 20 years ago that spirit was relived by the mighty sexy Wexford. Today we remember.
well said lad

Come on Wexford today 💜💛💜💛💜💛
Doing a disco in a Wexford pub one night and I played this. The place went mad as usual. 2 lads from Wicklow came up and asked me to play it again because they had never seen any song get such a reaction before. Naturally I obliged and once again it had the desired effect !
Hon Wicklow
Lovely 😊

What a brilliant way to honour your county's All Ireland - best ever ! !
STILL the best GAA song ever !!!!!
Fair play Wexford , from a cork man , delighted for ye.
On a lads holiday in Wales in '96 this kept hitting the air waves across the channel. It was the song of the holiday. Still remember it 23 yrs on.

i was just born when they won and i got to sit in the cup, my family is from bunclody nd i have seen pictures of the week that they won and it is unreall :D
proper reminds me of my childhood
18 year ago I lived in the Crown Bar Monke St. I paid paid for the rent for the flat next door but I stayed in the Crown.
Happy happy days.
To the extent that I was homesick when I came home to Scotland.
Turned native a tad
changing their note from tree to tree
and the song they sang was old ireland free...
Best. Off the top of my heart
LOVE THIS...
Im a Lillywhite but I love this song, iv been in Croker many times supporting Wexford. Best of luck to my Wexford friends Paddy, David, Anthony et al
Go boys @I want to be like them up wexford we were dancing at the crossroads !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hon Wexford.from a Waterford fan....
love it , !
lost all my family now .. they were from Enniscorthy.... john dolles pub back then was great time even his dog kinda miss them
I'm from wexford and I'm making an.... well how would ya say, prophecy maybe? I'm gonna try to tell the future. Wexford will win again in 2026. That way this song will work with some slight modifications like the players names and the fact that we dont use horse drawn carriages much anymore. I'm by no means a fortune teller, but right here, right now I am saying. Wexford will win again in 2026.
Cas T mad
Love Wexford 💜💛💜💛💜
