The Baggy Green |
A ball through the window a worn patch of grass |
Halvers in the backyard worth the pane of glass |
Your head full of heroes with cricket every day |
Could it be that baggy cap would come your way |
Don’t give up no don’t give up, never lose the dream |
It’s better than a crown of jewels to wear the baggy green |
Batters take the center bowlers hit the seam |
You never take for granted the baggy green |
A bad LBW brings about a fight |
Mum from the kitchen always makes it right |
Play resumes you dream again you hear 'em scream and shout |
You wish the day would never end, you’re still not out |
Don’t give up no don’t give up, never lose the dream |
It’s better than a crown of jewels to wear the baggy green |
Batters take the center bowlers hit the seam |
You never take for granted the baggy green |
See the crest resembles me and you |
The green and gold of course, the emu and the roo |
Just to feel of felt sends a shiver down your spine |
You pinch yourself you can’t believe it’s really mine |
Don’t give up no don’t give up, never lose the dream |
It’s better than a crown of jewels to wear the baggy green |
Batters take the center bowlers hit the seam |
You never take for granted the baggy green |
First session every test the Aussies can be seen |
To show their pride and pay respect upon the baggy green |
And all the Aussies on the street who understand the game |
Know that if they wore the cap they would feel the same |
Don’t give up no don’t give up, never lose the dream |
It’s better than a crown of jewels to wear the baggy green |
Batters take the center bowlers hit the seam |
You never take for granted the baggy green |
No, don’t give up no don’t give up, never lose the dream |
It’s better than a crown of jewels to wear the baggy green |
Batters take the center bowlers hit the seam |
You never take for granted the baggy green |
No, you never take for granted the baggy green |
