Irish traditional song lyrics — collected by Beer Belly Band.
It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
We are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
I wear a tartan bonnet and a scarf around my throat
And I can sing the Flower Of Scotland every single note
And we’re going doon tae London toon tae paralyze the undergroond
We are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
When Scotland’s playing England it fairly fills my heart
With all the flags and banners I will surely look the part
But win or lose it’s all the same We did na come to see the game
We’re just the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
We are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
There’s forty in my party aye and that’s including me
We did na all get tickets in fact we’ve only three
So three will win the lucky draw the rest will climb in o’er the wall
We are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
We’ll see how many pints o’ beer that we can sink away
We’re going ta drink all London dry, we’ll drink her dry today
And before we even see the ball we’ll lose it up against the wall
We are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
We are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
And when the game is over and we finished all the beer
We canna go back to Scotland with out a souvenir
So maybe for a wee bit lark we’ll dig up half of Wembely Park
For we’re the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
So now we’re back in Scotland after all the deeds are done
We dinna really gie a damn if Scotland lost or won
For we’ve met the English had oor fun reminded them of Bannockburn
And we’re the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
We are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
It’s oe’r the border if you dare and doon tae London for a tear
We are the Happy Hooligan’s of Wembely
