Lyrics for Hail Hail the Celts Are Here
Hail Hail, the Celts are here,
What the hell do we care,
What the hell do we care,
Hail Hail, the Celts are here,
What the hell do we care now...
For its a grand old team to play for,
For its a grand old team to see,
And if you know the history,
It's enough to make your heart go,
We don't care what the animals say,
What the hell do we care,
For we only know,
That there's gonna be a show,
And the Glasgow Celtic will be there...
