  2. The Ballad was composed by
    Patrick Ryan, Poet, Patrick's Well

    "The muses they invite me to sing a line or two,
    In praise of those Crecora boys they prove so loyal and true
    They beat them all, wheree'r they went, my boys, that's the rub
    May the heavens smile, upon the soil that reared Crecora club.
