Текст песни Let's Go Irish (You'll Never Beat the Irish)

We are the Fighting Irish, we're a team called Notre Dame
From a humble little Catholic school on the Indiana plain
In the year of 1919, we beat Army with acclaim
And Dorais and Rockne brought some class
They introduced the forward pass.

(...)

To play against the Big Ten the Irish had been banned
So Rockne and his Ramblers traveled all across the land
In '24 the Horsemen rode against the blue-gray sky
The Gipper's deathbed wish came true with victory for the Gold and Blue

Chorus:
You'll never beat the Irish
No matter what you do
you can put us down and keep us out, but we'll come back again
You know we are the Fighting Irish and we'll fight until the end
You know you should have known you'll never beat the Irish


All across the century we watched the Irish rise
To the top of College football to our rivals' great surprise
It was Hart, Bertelli, Lujack too, they led them with great poise
Then Brennan's Boys caused a stir with Oklahoma's streak's demise

With Ara Parseghian and Lou Holtz the Irish won great fame
For the legends of the football field
Are the best at Notre Dame
A new golden age of football in South Bend now begins
As Kelly writes new chapters with great new mighty Irish wins

Chorus:
You'll never beat the Irish
No matter what you do
You can put us down and keep us out but we'll come back again
You know we are the Fighting Irish and we'll fight until the end
You know you should have known you'll never beat the Irish
