The Purple And Gold

A father and son they stood hand in hand

As they watched Wexford play from the back of the stand

And the words that he said, I'll hear when I'm old

IT'S A BEAUTY TO BEHOLD WHEN YOU SEE THE PURPLE AND GOLD

On the purple and gold is my heart and my soul

From the men of today to the heroes of old

Oh the purple and gold is the dream I still hold

It's a beauty to behold when you see the purple and gold

I can still see them now on the All-Ireland Days

And the Rackards stood proud and by God could they play

And the Quigleys stood tall every man brave and bold

It was a privilege I was told to wear the purple and gold.

On the purple and gold is my heart and my soul

From the men of today to the heroes of old

Oh the purple and gold is the dream I still hold

It's a beauty to behold when you see the purple and gold.
