Tessie is the Royal Rooters rally cry
Tessie is the song they always sung
Tessie echoed April through October nights
After serenading Stahl, Dineen and Young
Tessie is a maiden with the sparkling eyes
Tessie is a maiden with the love
She doesn't know the meaning of her sight
She's got a comment full of love
And sometimes when the game is on the line
Tessie always carried them away
Up the road from Third Base to Huntington
The boys will always sing and sway

Two! Three! Four!

Tessie, Nuff Ced McGreevy shouted
We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only, only, only

The Rooters showed up at the Grounds one day
They found their seats had all been sold
McGreevy led the charge into the park
Stormed the gates and put the game on hold
The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright
Boston's tenth man could not be wrong
Up from Third Base to Huntington
They sang another victory song

Two! Three! Four!

Tessie, Nuff Ced McGreevy shouted
We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only, only, only

The Rooters gave the other team a dreadful fright
Boston's tenth man could not be wrong
Up from Third Base to Huntington
They sang another victory song

Two! Three! Four!

Tessie, Nuff Ced McGreevy shouted
We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Boston, you are the only, only, only
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Red Sox, you are the only, only, only
Tessie

Wow, a tribute to the Boston Red Sox. I may be a Phillies fan, but this Red Sox tribute is awesome.

I'm a BoSox fan and when I heard DKM did this song I went right out and bought the CD. It's great, and the song has Johnny Damon doing back-up vocals, how can you not love the song??

That was an inane comment, considering you already left two other saying the exact same thing, Mr. D. Anyway, yeah.. it's about the Boston Red Sox. It tells the story of the Royal Rooters, and pretty much gives you a clear depiction of the sox's die-hard fan base. Listen to this single! And check out the video, when you get a chance.

Look, my first comment was the Boston Red Sox HEADING to the World Series. My second one was the Boston Red Sox WINNING the World Series. Couldn't you tell the difference between the two comments?
