Official Club Song: "Ironsides the Beautiful"
Music by Samuel Ward, 1882
Lyrics by Jesse Berman, 2005 (with apologies to Katharine Lee Bates)
O beautiful for Ironsides,
For rugby we shall reign.
In every maul and every try
You'll hear this gay refrain:
O Ironsides! Hey Ironsides!
Now this is our decree —
We'll ruck the ball and **** 'em all!
God bless this RFC! |
More Ironsides Music
Battle Hymn of the Ironsides
Music: "Battle Hymn of the Republic" (Traditional)
Lyrics by Matthew Carter, 2005
Our men are of the finest —
It’s the Ironsides decree,
Loyalty has always been
A rugger guarantee.
We’re close to pitch and close to heart
The Ironsides RFC!
Our triumph presses on.
CHORUS:
Glory, Glory Drink to Ironsides!
Glory, Glory Drink to Ironsides!
Glory, Glory Drink to Ironsides!
Till Death we’re standing strong!
Our pack is firmly binded
And our backs are off to try,
We’re the greatest group of bastards
Who would like to make you cry,
I raise my voice
And lift my glass to every single guy!
Our courage presses on.
CHORUS
(On three — loud) IRONSIDES!
