Tessie Lyrics
this song was taken from the 1902 broadway musical "the silver slipper". it's about a bartender Michael "Tessie" McGreevy, who would control his bar when people from the Boston Americans (later known as the Boston Red Sox) would start some kind of riot. he would tame them by banging his hand on the bar shouting "Nuf Said!!", hence giving his name "Nuf Ced". Not really what the song's about, but it's just a brief history about it.
oh yeah...GO SOX!!!
yeah right slagonia... here is the first line from the bio section of the official DKM website: "Dropkick Murphys formed in 1996 in Boston, MA." still think they are from NYC? =P
about this oh so awsome song... you just can't love any other team than these SOX they are so good and much more friendly than those Yankees. this is a great baseball song, I wish I was from Boston
Lets go SOX!!!!!!!!
tonight's game was INSANE!
Ortiz is my new best friend, and I'm loving Johnny Damon! :o)
LET'S GO RED SOX!
for the last goddamn time,
it's: "Tessie, Nuff Said McGreevy shouted"
think about it!!!
RED SOX WON THE WORLD SERIES!!!
Glad to see this song worked and broke the curse.
Hell yes, good song right here. I was at game 5 of the ALCS and this song was played atleast 5 times. Thank you Ortiz for getting us through that game, and we ended up winning the world series. Oh and MattieChamp, it is "Nuff Ced Mcgreevy shouted" you dumbass, he was part of the Red Sox way back in the day. Hence why he shouted. So how about you learn some Sox history and think about that.
GO SOX! this song was the power balot that we needed to finally beat the curse and get our spirits up. everygame i listened to this song and they won. i started listning at game 5! GO SOX!
The song is a tribute to the Royal Rooters back in 1903. They used to torture and heckle the hell out of the other team with this old Broadway tune called "Tessie" This is an updated and different version. The lyrics were written by Jeff Horrigan, a writer from teh Boston Herald. Johnny Damon, Bronson Arroyo and Lenny DiNardo all of the Red Sox did backup vocals. Pokey Reese was going to, but he couldn't make it.
And they played this song during July 24th game before it happened....which is....you guessed it, the brawl game.
Just a fun song to sing out loud in the car
GO SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
