1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Was it Daisy or Dolly, remember his Man Utd days,
He’s the one who gave blood for the cause, for what ever team he played,
A Geordie by birth, and it used to be football, that saved em from the pit,
Them Northern lads, are some of the finest, to ever wear a kit,

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 With Shearer, The Charltons, Sir Bobby, Wor Jackie, all Legends of thier trade,
And just like Brucie, these great players were also Geordie Made,
A natural born leader on the pitch, who wore the captains armband with pride,
And when the going got tough, you knew for sure, that Brucie would never hide,

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 When his playing days were over he went, down the management road,
But all he got from his other clubs, was Brucie your gonna have to unload,
So he came back to the Blues, when T. F. went the other way,
Within 6 month’s he got us up, via Cardiff, on the 12th of May.

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 The job he’s done, in such a short space of time, has been magnificent i must say,
History will prove you, the greatest manager we’ve had, and we’re behind you all the way,
You’ve given us back our pride, and you always stop for a chat,
But i swear it wasn’t me that phoned up BRMB and told em all about Mat,

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 So as the Midlands premier club, we’re back where we belong,
Weve kept right on, to the end of the road, just like in our song,
I’m a Brummie by birth, a Bluenose by the grace of God, till the day i die a Blue,
So thanks to you Steve, for what you’ve done, and i’ll raise my glass to you.
