I remember when I was a lad
Kicking a footie around my backyard
Me and the cousins, we tried to kick a goal
Oh, what a time we had
Oh, we played real hard
Yeah, we played with our heart and soul
'Cause it's the best game in the world
For young and old
It's my football team (oh-oh-oh)
Yeah, my football team (oh-oh-oh)
Putting down a player is tryna put him off his game
For my football team (oh-oh-oh)
In my football team (oh-oh-oh)
Well it's the colour of your jumper
Not the colour of your skin
Neighbours across the way come over and play a game
Kicking the ball on the house and out the cars
And when we start to play, you know I went insane
'Cause I thought I was a football star
And everybody came to see me, from near and far
Me and my football team (oh-oh-oh)
In my football team (oh-oh-oh)
Now putting down a player is tryna put him off his game
For my football team (oh-oh-oh)
In my football team (oh-oh-oh)
Well it's the colour of your jumper
Not the colour of your skin
Well you can put down a player, you can put down a team
But you can never put down who we are
You can never put down a young man's dream
Of becoming a football star
ย
In my football team (oh-oh-oh)
For my football team (oh-oh-oh)
Putting down a player is tryna put him off his game
For my football team (oh-oh-oh)
In my football team (oh-oh-oh)
Well, it's the colour of your jumper
Not the colour of your skin
Yeah, it's the colour of your jumper
Not the colour of your skin
