From Land’s End to Lowestoft
From Carlisle to Southampton

From East til West
From North til South

From the bustling streets of London
To the backstreets of Rio de Janiero
From the village parks to football stadiums

Listen carefully
On Saturday afternoon come three

It’s the referees whistle
‘It’s the shouts of the players
It’s the singing of the fans

It’s the sounds of football
