Pride of Brum

                          

   I am just like you

  Born and bred

               In a place that is claret and blue

               Miles seem everlasting ahead.

 

               As footsteps touch obstreperous voices

               Fickle of a dozen of choices

               A liquor, an outing or a delightful repast

               Nothing can compete with my past.

 

               When times were innocent and young

               Before change came to beckon

               I was a boy at the time

               But this is thy place where I belong

               Bright lights, big cities gaze at every second

               But this city is our city and we’re fine.

 

               I am just like you            

               Born and bred

               In a place that is claret and blue

               Miles seem everlasting ahead.

 

               It’s not till I return

               Patriotism and wisdom grows

               As I peer more closely

               It becomes more clearly.

 

               Nothing compares to thy land we as one grace.
