Ballad of Billy Bremer [Leeds United] lyrics

(Shouted) Bil-ly Brem-ner (5 claps)

(repeated 5 times)

There's a tale I'm goin' to tell you

All about a brave young man

Who was born and born in Scotland

That's where history began

He once cheered the Glasgow Celtic

Just the soon as he could talk

And he'd kick a paper football

Just the soon as he could walk

And his name is Billy Bremner

We will never forget his deeds

He was made to play for Scotland

Now he captains United of Leeds

So he came to Leeds United

And they made Don Revie the boss

All the Elland Road fans were excited

and wor gain was Celtic's loss

Many giants have tried to slay him

When he fights for every ball

But he knows the famous saying

When they're big the harder they fall

And his name is Billy Bremner

We will never forget his deeds

He was made to play for Scotland

Now he captains United of Leeds

When they talk of Mathews and Pele

Of Laughton and Finney and James

Like a whiskey in your belly

He will glow amongst those names

He will lead our lads to glory

He will lead our lads to fame

When they sing Uniteds story

You will always hear the name

And his name is Billy Bremner

We will never forget his deeds

He was made to play for Scotland

Now he captains United of Leeds

And his name is Billy Bremner

We will never forget his deeds

He was made to play for Scotland

Now he captains United of Leeds

(9 claps) Brem-ner

(repeated to fade)
