The Lyrics
I dedicate this to all the football fans at amiright and out there! :-)
The pass has been thrown
We’re heading for the end zone
Four field goals, for what?
They’re still kicking our butt
The ball I keep stealing
But the tackles keep holding me down
I’m always healing,
I don’t seem to ever score a touchdown
Chorus:
We’re having a ball
Football, a game where the winner takes all
Holy, moly, A kick right past the goalie!
Attack, fight back, gotta take down the lineback
Winner takes all, everybody's playing football
We’re playing so cool, obeying every rule
A pass to the quarterback
Always ends up in a touchback
Someone passes the ball to you,
You’re running for the ten yard line
I keep on telling you
But you keep getting tackled every time
What a crime!
Chorus:
Have-a-ball, football, where the winner takes all
Holy, moly, A kick right past the goalie!
Attack, fight back, gotta take down the lineback
Winner takes all, everybody's playing football
We’ve got to try for a touchdown
And keep our cleats in the ground
Gonna be the winner and take all
We’re having a ball!
Chorus:
Football, we’re the winner and took all
Holy, moly, we kicked right past the goalie!
Attack, fight back, we’ve taken down the defenses lineback
Winner, took all, everybody's playing football
(Football!)
Football!
(Football!)
We’re the winner and took all (Touchdown!)
Holy, moly, we kicked right past the goalie! (Spectators cheering)
Attack, fight back, we’ve taken down the defenses lineback
Winner, takes all...
Everybody Hup
Everybody Hup
Everybody Hup
Everybody Hup
Everybody Hup
Everybody Hup
(Spectators: Everybody!)
Everybody's playing football!
We’re heading for the end zone
Four field goals, for what?
They’re still kicking our butt
The ball I keep stealing
But the tackles keep holding me down
I’m always healing,
I don’t seem to ever score a touchdown
Chorus:
We’re having a ball
Football, a game where the winner takes all
Holy, moly, A kick right past the goalie!
Attack, fight back, gotta take down the lineback
Winner takes all, everybody's playing football
We’re playing so cool, obeying every rule
A pass to the quarterback
Always ends up in a touchback
Someone passes the ball to you,
You’re running for the ten yard line
I keep on telling you
But you keep getting tackled every time
What a crime!
Chorus:
Have-a-ball, football, where the winner takes all
Holy, moly, A kick right past the goalie!
Attack, fight back, gotta take down the lineback
Winner takes all, everybody's playing football
We’ve got to try for a touchdown
And keep our cleats in the ground
Gonna be the winner and take all
We’re having a ball!
Chorus:
Football, we’re the winner and took all
Holy, moly, we kicked right past the goalie!
Attack, fight back, we’ve taken down the defenses lineback
Winner, took all, everybody's playing football
(Football!)
Football!
(Football!)
We’re the winner and took all (Touchdown!)
Holy, moly, we kicked right past the goalie! (Spectators cheering)
Attack, fight back, we’ve taken down the defenses lineback
Winner, takes all...

A bit confusing. First you are running for touchdowns and trying to kick field goals, then you are trying to kick one past the goalie. Are you talking real football or that foreign game we call soccer that the rest of the world mistakenly refers to as football?
Actually Patrick, I really never had a set order for the verses/choruses when I wrote the song. It just talks about the different aspects of football round the world and how it is such a popular game. :-)
It also does however follow the pattern of the original song, as all of mine do.
I got a feeling that we have someone that visits this site that is attacking our songs by giving them 1,1,1 on purpose. I think that this site needs to be more maintained and aware of these goings on, it is not fair to the rest of us that we work so hard and some j**k off has to spoil it all!! I have already noticed that Old Man Ribber's songs are being attacked as well. This MUST! stop!! I do not post here to have my work treated like crap, by some ignorant as****e!!
This song used to be a 5,5,5 now it's clear down to a 3.7, 3.7, 3.7 just because of some rude, no good, soab! I take pride in all the work I do as well as full respect for all the work that all the rest of the people do here, and WE DO NOT NEED THIS KINDA CRAP! going on!
Lastly, I could write a parody better than a 111 if I was stone cold dead and buried for 50 years!
I take back the things I said above, I was not in a good state of mind yesterday and it's nobody's fault but mine. :-(
All the comments from the third line that starts "I got a feeling" are very disturbing to me and possibly other people here at am i right. and I feel as if they should have been removed a long time ago.
