Bye bye Boleyn

A little musical farewell to the Boleyn Ground. Here are the lyrics so you can all sing along...

If you wander down to Green Street
There’s a sight will greet you there
Die hard members of the tribe will
Tell you there’s no sight more fair
A castle guards the spot
A sacred grassy plot

Ev’ry fortnight Autumn, Winter,
Spring you’ll see the serried ranks
Of the faithful gaily singing
Lined along its towering banks
But now the days are few
To behold this wondrous view

Bye bye my beautiful Boleyn
All of the troubles we’ve known
And all of the bubbles we’ve blown, have flown
Away up the Romford Road
We’ll see no more kickin’ done
From the good old Chicken Run
So Mr Moon if you leave now, you won’t get back in
Cause it’s bye bye my beautiful Boleyn

Bye bye (come on you Irons)
Bye bye (come on you Irons)

Bye bye my beautiful Boleyn
We knew that the hammer would fall
We knew that the glamour would call, us all
Away from our one true home
Let our ghosts, at least, be seen
On the streets of east thirteen
Looking up as those billions of bubbles begin
Flying high over beautiful Boleyn

Bye bye (come on you Irons)
Bye bye (come on you Irons)

Bye bye my beautiful Boleyn
All of the heroes we’ve known
And all of the bubbles we’ve blown, have flown
Away up the Romford Road
We’ll see no more kickin’ done
From the good old Chicken Run
So Mr Moon if you leave now, you won’t get back in
Cause it’s bye bye my beautiful Boleyn

Let our ghosts, at least, be seen
On the streets of east thirteen
Looking up for the last time as bubbles begin
Flying high over beautiful,
My claret and blue-tiful
Bye bye my beautiful Boleyn

Bye bye (come on you Irons)
Bye bye (come on you Irons)
