The Fermanagh Way

The Fermanagh Way
(Paul Brady)

I was down in a hole
Hurtin’ in my soul
When my friend on the phone told me it’s ok
There’s a team you can see,
The football sets you free
Come on over, watch them do it
The Fermanagh way!

Ciaran O’Reilly, Martin McGrath
The Maguires and the Sherrys, Over the bar!
McCloskey, McBarron, stand where you are!
Hey, Raymond Johnston, hold on!

Chorus
If your team is a mess
Your county’s in distress
Put your future to the test
The Fermanagh way
Throw your worries to the wind
You’ll find it’s no sin
Start a new way of winning
The Fermanagh way

So I scraped up the bread
Set my compass dead ahead
And I’m standing here in Croker in the white and green
And I’m roaring out loud with some young one in the crowd
Sayin’, ‘I’m from Enniskillen, I’m a lean machine!’

Out shoots Tinney, Bradley’s away!
Niall Bogue, Barry Owens, makin’ my day..
McDermott, and Little, what can I say?
Here’s to you Charlie Mulgrew!

Repeat Chorus

Gimme one more day,
Ma, I gotta stay
See them heroes play
The Fermanagh Way!
Hey! Hey!
