Lyric
- Hullo, Hullo
- We are the Rangers Boys
- Hullo, Hullo
- You'll know us by our noise
- We're down to our knees to see our team
- At Ibrox or away
- For we are
- The Glasgow Rangers Boys
This has been changed over time though to:
- Hullo, Hullo
- We are the Billy Boys
- Hullo, Hullo
- You'll know us by our noise
- We're up to our knees in fenian blood
- Surrender or you'll die
- For we are
- The Brigton Derry Boys
In the final line the word "Brigton" is often replaced by the name of the singer's hometown/estate. Example, "Govan Derry Boys".

And all a wonder and a wild desire.”
