Lyrics for Edward Ebeneezer Jeremiah Brown

My name is Edward Ebeneezer Jeremiah Brown, And I'm a football supporter of Ipswich Town, Where ever they play, You'll find me, I haven't missed a game since I was three, With my scarf and my rattle, And my big rosette, Singing where was the goalie, When the ball was in the net, Follow the Town, Up or down, I'm Edward Ebeneezer Jeremiah Brown, And everybody calls me Ted...

Behind the chant

What's the story behind Edward Ebeneezer Jeremiah Brown?

The song was written by Gerald 'Gerry' Hicks and premiered at a Cavendish Memorial Hall musical in 1971, with actors waving Ipswich Town scarves. It was later adopted by the club and has been the Portman Road walkout song ever since.
