Song by Dropkick Murphys<br /><br>

Tessie is the Royal Rooters rally cry<br>

Tessie is the tune they always sung<br>

Tessie echoed April through October nights<br>

After serenading Stahl, Dinneen and Young<br>

Tessie is a maiden with a sparkling eye<br>

Tessie is a maiden with a love<br>

She doesn't know the meaning of her sight<br>

She's got a comment full of love<br>

And sometimes when the game is on the line<br>

Tessie always carried them away<br>

Up the road from third base to Huntington<br>

The boys will always sing and sway<br>

<br>

Two! Three! Four!<br>

<br>

Tessie, Nuff Said McGreevey shouted<br>

We're not here to mess around<br>

Boston, you know we love you madly<br>

Hear the crowd roar to your sound<br>

Don't blame us if we ever doubt you<br>

You know we couldn't live without you<br>

Tessie, you are the only only only<br>

<br>

The Rooters showed up at the grounds one day<br>

They found their seats had all been sold<br>

McGreevey led the charge into the park<br>

Stormed the gates and put the game on hold<br>

The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright<br>

Boston's tenth man could not be wrong<br>

Up from third base to Huntington<br>

They'd sing another victory song<br>

<br>

Two! Three! Four!<br>

<br>

Tessie, Nuff Said McGreevey shouted<br>

We're not here to mess around<br>

Boston, you know we love you madly<br>

Hear the crowd roar to your sound<br>

Don't blame us if we ever doubt you<br>

You know we couldn't live without you<br>

Tessie, you are the only only only<br>

<br>

The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright<br>

Boston's tenth man could not be wrong<br>

Up from third base to Huntington<br>

They'd sing another victory song<br>

<br>

Two! Three! Four!<br>

<br>

Tessie, Nuff Said McGreevey shouted<br>

We're not here to mess around<br>

Boston, you know we love you madly<br>

Hear the crowd roar to your sound<br>

Don't blame us if we ever doubt you<br>

You know we couldn't live without you<br>

Boston, you are the only only only<br>

Don't blame us if we ever doubt you<br>

You know we couldn't live without you<br>

Red Sox, you are the only only only<br>
