Dropkick Murphys lyrics : "Tessie"

Tessie is the Royal Rooters rally cry
Tessie is the song they always sung
Tessie echoed April through October nights

After serenading Stahl, Dineen and Young
Tessie is a maiden with the sparkling eyes
Tessie is a maiden with the love

She doesn't know the meaning of her sight
She's got a comment full of love
And sometimes when the game is on the line

Tessie always carried them away
Up the road from Third Base to Huntington
The boys will always sing and sway


Two! Three! Four!


Tessie, Nuff Ced McGreevy shouted
We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly

Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you

Tessie, you are the only, only, only

The Rooters showed up at the Grounds one day

They found their seats had all been sold
McGreevy led the charge into the park
Stormed the gates and put the game on hold

The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright
Boston's tenth man could not be wrong
Up from Third Base to Huntington

They sang another victory song

Two! Three! Four!


Tessie, Nuff Ced McGreevy shouted
We're not here to mess around

Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you

You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only, only, only


The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright
Boston's tenth man could not be wrong
Up from Third Base to Huntington

They sang another victory song

Two! Three! Four!


Tessie, Nuff Ced McGreevy shouted
We're not here to mess around

Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you

You know we couldn't live without you
Boston, you are the only, only, only
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you

You know we couldn't live without you
Red Sox, you are the only, only, only
