[edit] Lyrics

For it's a grand old team to play for,
For it's a grand old team to say,
And when you know the history,
It's enough to make your heart go 9 in a row,
God Bless them.

We don't care if we win lose or draw,
Darn the hair do we care,
For we only know that theres going to be a show,
And the Glasgow Celtic will be there.

Sure it's the best darn team in Scotland,
And its players all are grand,
We support the Celtic,
As they are the finest in the land we love them,
We'll be there to give the bhoys a cheer
When the green Flag flies,
And the cheers go up when we know the Scottish Cup,
Is coming home to rest at Paradise.

As sung by the supporters

Hail Hail, the Celts are here,
What the hell do we care,
What the hell do we care,
Hail Hail, the Celts are here,
What the hell do we care now...

For its a grand old team to play for,
For its a grand old team to see,
And if you know the history,
Its enough to make your heart go,
Di-de-da-ra,

We don't care what the animals say,
What the hell do we care,
For we only know,
That there's gonna be a show,
And the Glasgow Celtic will be there.

Sure it's the best darn team in Scotland
and the players they are Grand,
"We support the Celtic"
'cos they are the finest in the land we love them.
We'll be there to give the bhoys a cheer
When the League Flag flies,
And the cheers go up 'cos we know the Scottish Cup
is coming home to rest at Paradise.
