    And then you will see them play.
    The whistle is blown the ball is thrown in
    And it is now you see them jump
    Tydavnet is dashing up the field
    Like an Aracalkin hunt.
    Excitement is getting very high
    And the band has ceased to play
    And then you will hear the people cheer
    The Tydavnet boys away.

    They cup they'll win I am very sure
    It is free from crack or hole
    If they leave it in Tydavnet

    We will take it down to Killylough.
    Where the boys can march and play
    And then you will hear the people cheer
    the Tydavnet Boys away.
