Sir Thomas Finney.

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Baggy shorts and dubbined boots
White shirt, sleeves rolled-up
A Knighted hero takes The Final route
Via Deepdale on the bus.

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 So fare thee well o lauded Knight
With white chalk on yer boots
Who regally wore two shirts, and both with pride,
Whilst loyal to your roots.
