Footie fan
Well the city's been so quiet
Since the boys in Green went back
But it only took them three months
To put Portland on the map
Yes the stadium's never heard the sounds
Of cheers in all its years
When the players come on the field
The thousands singing in their ears
Full lyrics
Chorus:
Green is the Color
Soccer is the game
We're the Portland Timbers
And winning is our aim
So let's give all of the boys a cheer
For the Portland Timbers will be here
Now the stadium's dead without them
The cobwebs start to fall
Still the fans sit there waiting
For their Timbers to return
In the Taverns on the weekend
You can hear them from afar
Singing praises to their Timbers
As they're lifting up their jars
(Chorus)
You ain't got to be 200 pound
Or a giant at 7'3"
To play this game called soccer
Which is growing rapidly
You can hear it on a radio
You'll see it on TV
You can join the Timbers Army
Let everybody hear you scream
(Chorus)
So let's give all of the boys a cheer
For the Portland Timbers will be here
