Duhallow's Greatest

In his prime a World Champion stories of his greatness told
In Amsterdam and Los Angeles for hammer throwing he won Olympic Gold
Pat O' Callaghan of Derrygallon was the greatest of his time
The World's greatest hammer thower when in his glorious prime

In his prime the World's greatest no argument on that
Never again in Duhallow will there be one like the mighty Dr Pat
One who proved himself  a champion against the World's best
He was not found to be wanting when he was put to the test

In his prime against the World's best his own legend he did create
Never again in Duhallow will there be one quite so great
In Amsterdam and Los Angeles he achieved Worldwide fame
And in the history of the olympics his lives on as a great name

In his prime a dual Olympic Gold Medallist the mantle of greatness he did don
And though deceased for many years his legend does live on
In the World of hammer throwers the highest honors he did attain
In Duhallow there will never be one as great as him again

In the Olympic Stadiums in Amsterdam and Los Angeles where the cheering it was loud
The great hammer thrower from Derrygallon he did old Ireland proud
against the best in the World strength and courage he displayed
And the stories of his greatness to the decades do not fade.
