Text písně Ballad of Billy Bremner

There's a tale I'm goin' to tell you All about a brave young man Who was born and born in Scotland That's where history began He once cheered the Glasgow Celtic Just the soon as he could talk And he'd kick a paper football Just the soon as he could walk And his name is Billy Bremner We will never forget his deeds He was made to play for Scotland Now he captains United of Leeds So he came to Leeds United And they made Don Revie the boss All the Elland Road fans were excited and wor gain was Celtic's loss Many giants have tried to slay him When he fights for every ball But he knows the famous saying When they're big the harder they fall And his name is Billy Bremner We will never forget his deeds He was made to play for Scotland Now he captains United of Leeds When they talk of Mathews and Pele Of Laughton and Finney and James Like a whiskey in your belly He will glow amongst those names He will lead our lads to glory He will lead our lads to fame When they sing Uniteds story You will always hear the name And his name is Billy Bremner We will never forget his deeds He was made to play for Scotland Now he captains United of Leeds And his name is Billy Bremner We will never forget his deeds He was made to play for Scotland Now he captains United of Leeds
