Cheers or tears - Russia 2018

Football fever is sweeping the nation Everyone stocks up in beer There all flying flags And cheering our lads on Hoping we do better this year The last time we won it was 66 That’s a whole life time away And four years ago in 2014 We went out to the yanks before it had really began So what are our chances in Russia this year How far can England progress? Will Stirling get injured? Will they send Vardey off? What if we go down to ten men? Will it be cheers or will it be tears? Only time will tell Can Southgate’s men make history and to win? Can we beat Panama, Belgium and Sweden Is football coming home? Or will all of the merchandise go in the bin As hopes and hearts break again? So we’re pinning our hopes On our England squad With three lions on their shirts Biting nails on the edge of our seats Can they repair 50 years of hurt And make history for this generation?
