Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
\nWe are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

I wear a tartan bonnet and a scarf around my throat
\nAnd I can sing the Flower Of Scotland every single note
\nAnd we’re going doon tae London toon tae paralyze the undergroond
\nWe are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

When Scotland’s playing England it fairly fills my heart
\nWith all the flags and banners I will surely look the part
\nBut win or lose it’s all the same We did na come to see the game
\nWe’re just the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
\nWe are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

There’s forty in my party aye and that’s including me
\nWe did na all get tickets in fact we’ve only three
\nSo three will win the lucky draw the rest will climb in o’er the wall
\nWe are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

We’ll see how many pints o’ beer that we can sink away
\nWe’re going ta drink all London dry, we’ll drink her dry today
\nAnd before we even see the ball we’ll lose it up against the wall
\nWe are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
\nWe are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

And when the game is over and we finished all the beer
\nWe canna go back to Scotland with out a souvenir
\nSo maybe for a wee bit lark we’ll dig up half of Wembely Park
\nFor we’re the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

So now we’re back in Scotland after all the deeds are done
\nWe dinna really gie a damn if Scotland lost or won
\nFor we’ve met the English had oor fun reminded them of Bannockburn
\nAnd we’re the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely<\/p>\n

It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
\nWe are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
\nIt’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
