World Cup 1982

Oh yes, I'd forgotten all about that... just had to find the lyrics and yes, it's a World Cup classic!  Big Grin  Big Grin

I awoke in the night, with a fever

and the sky was the darkest blue (blue sky)

and a still, small voice was calling to me

(your country is needing you)

aye - and just like that!

and away, away in the distance

I can just make out this ball, coming in from the left

and I'm starting to run, to run like hell

and the voice is getting louder, and louder, and louder

crying "hey big yin - gaun yersel"

chorus

I have a dream (we have a dream)

If dreams come true (if dreams come true)

Then bonnie Scotland (then bonnie Scotland)

I'll play for you (we'll play for you)

now I hope, and I pray (we hope and pray)

That if, if I do (that if we do)

then Bonnie Scotland - we'll score the winning goal for you

Now the next thing I know, someones gone and tripped me

and I've fallen just inside the box (its a penalty!)

The ref - he looks to his linesman

and he's pointing straight at the spot (that's brilliant)

now, John Robertson, who normally takes them

Is handing the ball to me (you don't say)

Then i hear my old lady screaming blue murder

she saying "its no the ba' yer kicking ya eejit - its me!"

repeat chorus


bagpipe/instumemtal/chorus

Don't write 'em like that any more...
