CLUB SONG

Its a grand old flag
Its a high flying flag
Its them emblem for me and for you
Its the emblem of
The team we love
The team of the red, white and blue
Every heart beats true for the red, white and blue
As we sing this song for you
What do we sing
Should old acquaintances be forgot
Keep your eye on the red, white and blue



BLOOD OF A SWAN

Heart of a LION, Blood of a SWAN

By Shane Lindgren.

When times seem tough

And pain runs through you

When you think you’ve had enough

And your teammates think so too

Keep you heads held high

And don’t play for the tie

Give that extra bit of effort

Go in hard, go in strong

Even though the quarter may seem long.

Think about what you get out of it, singing the team song.

Show the heart of a lion

And bleed the blood of a swan

Because of it all

You will be the ones that stand tall

No need for glory, no need for fame

We do it for the game

We do it for the club

We are loyal to the name

Full of fighting spirit

Come on boys, let them here it

The Curra Swans legacy is one of a kind

If you don’t see that you must be blind

It’s a grand old flag, yes indeed

This is our creed.
Curra boys of old, Curra boys of new

By god there is a few

Curra isn’t just a club

It’s a family

The tin shed is a house

Full of memories, full of flags

My Curra blood bleeds strong and true

Of the red, the white, and the blue

Nothing could ever replace that

The heart and soul of the Curra Swans crew.
