One of football's most universally recognised songs, and the Saints of Inchicore have made it entirely their own. When Richmond Park erupts into this anthem, St. Patrick's Athletic fans remind the whole League of Ireland who the Saints really are. A chant as famous as the club itself, find the lyrics and audio here.
Lyrics for When the Saints
Oh when the saints,
Go marching in,
Oh when the saints go marching in,
I wanna be in that number,
Oh when the saints go marching in...
