Now I'm a Scotland supporter
Stalked by the world’s reporters
To see if I’m well built
Under my kilt
Yes I'm a Scotland supporter
its been decades since I
Have seen Scotland qualify
For the later stages
And turn some new pages
Don’t know the answer why
Chorus
We sing every song
I'm a Scottish supporter
Sing all night long
I'm a Scottish supporter
We can’t go wrong
I’ll be a Scottish supporter
Until the day I die
until the day I die
Verse
Hungary scored near the end
So many broken hearts to mend
Many tears were shed
Cried our eyes red
Its so hard to comprehend
Played better against the Hungariuns
Than against the Berliners and Bavariuns
We huffed and puffed
But it wasn’t enough
Badly needed a Dave Narey type one
Chorus
We sang every song
I'm a Scottish supporter
Sang every song
I'm a Scottish supporter
You can’t go wrong
Being a Scottish supporter
Until the day I die
until the day I die
Come from near and far
We’re Scottish supporters
From Leven to Lloret Del Mar
We’re Scottish supporters
From Dalry to Dakar
We’re Scottish supporters
Until the day we die
until the day we die
Verse
As the banners and flags unfurled
And the bagpipes skirled
We raised the rafters
Spread joy and laughter
Before the eyes of the world
So though its still hurtin’
And our Euro hopes are gone for a burton
We’ll be ready again for the next campaign
That’s for feckin’ certain
Chorus
We sang every song
I'm a Scottish supporter
All night long
I'm a Scottish supporter
You can’t go wrong
I’ll be a Scottish supporter
Until the day I die
until the day I die
We had a ball
I'm a Scottish supporter
Answered the call
I'm a Scottish supporter
Give up ? Not at all
I’ll be a Scottish supporter
Until the day I die
until the day I die
