Sing your part in the Official Euro 2012 Song!
In studio last week we had Damien Dempsey and producer John Reynolds to write the lyrics, with listeners help, to the Official Euro
2012 Song for the Republic of Ireland Soccer Squad. The song itself was recorded in Windmill Lane on Thursday 23rd February with Bressie, Danny from the Coronoas and
The Dubliners joining Damo in studio.
Now we want you to sing your part for inclusion in the officially released version of the Euro 2012 Song.
Below is the chant that we want you to sing along to. Practice it once or twice, then video yourself using your mobile phone or digital camera. Upload the video to Today FM's Post It HERE and we can take it from there.*

Rocky Road to Poland Lyrics
T’was in the merry month of June, from our home we started,
Left old Eireann’s Isle, to Poland we departed,
Hope within our hearts, we can win the trophy,
We are all a part of Trappatoni’s army,
Get behind the team, hear the Irish scream,
C’mon you boys in green, Ireland’s bouncing back again,
We have got our Trap, the cat is in the sack,
We’ll not forget you Jack, On the rocky road to Poland.
One, Two, Three, Four, Five,
Irish eyes are smiling,
Let your voices ring
Trappatoni’s army,
Everybody sing.
You’ll never beat the Irish x 4
Make your mother proud, inflate your plastic hammer,
Bate your bodhrán loud and learn your Polish grammar,
Credit Union loan, sold the Opel Corsa,
Hired a camper van, picked it up in Warsaw,
Been so close before, hopes slammed in the door,
Now we’re back for more, we can win the battle,
C’mon you boys in green, never have we seen,
Such a fearless team, on the rocky road to Poland.
One, Two, Three, Four, Five,
Irish eyes are smiling,
Let your voices ring
Trappatoni’s army,
Everybody sing.
You’ll never beat the Irish x 4
Ireland Abú. We love.
