UP THE MICKS:

Now once you join the Irish Guards,

then you're a Mick for life.

They'll stand by you through thick and thin,

through every kind of strife.

And should you ever be in a fight with your back against the door

just holler "Up the Micks" me lads

for that's their call to war.

As time goes by, old Micks pass on

but their names are ne'er forgot,

for they helped to rewrite history,

tho' it may not be a lot,

and as Peter greets them at the gates

with a smile upon his lips

the angels all in chorus sing welcome

"Up the micks"
