Seasiders

[Yorkshire Blue]

Well I was sitting on my stall
at old Roots Hall
Cheering on the Blue and the White
1-0 up in the 81st
another two will make us alright.
Well you know what its like on a Saturday night
you've thrown it all away at the end
they say come on darling its only a game
and you tell them its your best friend

we're the seasiders, the soul survivors, the blues, the shrimpers, the barmy army
nothing's gonna stop us now
we're the seasiders
the seasiders
the seasiders of roots hall

Well I was sitting on my stall
talking football
bigging up the blue and the white
and he comes in and winds me up
talking all that claret and blue tripe
he says come on mate we're all the same
you're just like our baby brother
i said we're not cockney we're southenders
by the way we ain't your brother

we're the seasiders, the soul survivors, the blues, the shrimpers, the barmy army
nothing's gonna stop us now
we're the seasiders
the seasiders
the seasiders of roots hall

Southend til I die Southend til I die
I'll be Southend till I die
I'll be Southend till I die

Shrimpers till we die Shrimpers till we die
Shrimpers till we die Shrimpers till we die

Well I was sitting on my stall
at old Roots Hall
Dreaming of the Blue and the White
4-0 up in the 81st
we're gonna win the title alright.
Well you know what its like on a Saturday night
they wake you up before the end
they say come on darling it was only a dream
and you tell her its your best friend

we're the seasiders, the soul survivors, the blues, the shrimpers, the barmy army
nothing's gonna stop us now
nothing's gonna stop us now
nothing's gonna stop us now
we're the seasiders
we're the seasiders
we're the seasiders of roots hall

It's got a certain something, YB... I'd like to insert something about sheep in there to demonstrate our adversity to our country cousins following on from yesterday's Moooooooose-tastic result. Who put the ball in the Col Ewe net...Moussa/do-dah! :clap:
