THE WILD ROVER
A Wild Rover.........geddit???
We've followed the Jimmies for many a year
We've spent all our money on Saints shirts and beer
On Sat'dee we'll bring home the Powergen Cup
Let's just hope there's plenty of Guinness to sup
Chorus:
And its no, nay, never
No, nay, never, No more
Will we lose under Smudger
No, never, no more
We'll colonise Twickers - a part of St James
There'll be one or two Irishmen - but they're quite tame.
And the roars will go up as we score lots of tries
Let's just hope they've bought in a large stock of pies.
Chorus:
When Actionman runs out they'll look on in fright
Their eyes open wide at the terrible sight
Sharp intakes of breath will be heard from the stands
As soon as they glimpse Johan's bloody great hands
Chorus
And Ollie le Bruiser, with gallic good looks
Will tower above that wee lad Archie Brookes
Australian Jorgy and kilted Saint Matt
Oh those boys from the Oirish he's gonna GERSPLATT
Chorus
The front rows completed by Wally and Tom
As back up there's Robbie - not long left his Mom.
Our own Danny Boy pushes Wall all the way
Just which one is better none of us can say
Chorus
There's our leader Budge with Grant Seely at eight
One word to describe Andrew Blowers is GREAT!
The left wing is covered by Ben's lovely thighs
Each time that he moves hear those young lady's sighs.
Chorus
John Leslie at centre and then there's Nick Beal
He missed out last time so this show he will steal.
At scrum half, a film star, that's right JAR - JAR Binks
The best in the land is what everyone thinks.
Chorus
Let's not forget 'Besty' or 'Larry' to some
To Twickenham's pressures he'll never succumb
He kicked us to victory two years ago
Now more men of Ireland our Graysy will show.
Chorus
There's Meerkat and JP and Craigy and Snow
And our own Wild Rover - yes that's right - young Joe
Too many to name in this musical tale
Now let's make those Irish boys weep in their ale
Chorus:
