AN ODE TO CARDIFF CITY BY THE SBF1
Men of Cardiff we are daring
In your face we stand a staring
Blue and White we're proud of wearing
Welshmen never yield
Bluebirds we are many (clap clap )
Bluebirds we are many. (clap clap )
St David's men, are here again
The loudest support of any.
Men of Cardiff start your winning
On the attack from the very beginning
You'll never stop us Welshmen singing
Cos,Welshmen never yield.
Bluebirds we are many (clap clap )
Bluebirds we are many. (clap clap )
St David's men, are here again
The loudest support of any. |
