- Have you seen Tipperary champions?
Hurl Clare in Cork's own town.
When they won the Munster final
The first step to the "Triple Crown"
I have seen some Munster finals,
But none could it compare
To that match in Cork's Athletic grounds.
Between champions Tipp and Clare
At half time we were leading
with just one point to spare
With the sun and wind against us
Sure it looked a win for Clare
But our old experienced trainer-Tom Semple was his name
He gave our boys a lecture
As to how they'd play the game.
The match again re-started
And we could plainly see
That Tipp would win the championship
That day beside the Lee
They drove men and ball before them
With their old Tipperary dash
Tom Daly in the goal-post
Sure he saw their coming rush.(continues on next page)
