The Sky Blues Are Back

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Jimmy Hill came to Coventry in the 60’s
who were a lowly third division team,
he promised a football miracle
with his amazing sky blue dream.
Some fans thought it was all a gimmick
my dad said that he won’t last long,
but when his sides kept on winning
he went and proved them all wrong.
He got us up to the old first division
with exciting all action play,
crowds flocked to Highfield Road
atmosphere electric on a match day.
Now we’ve got a similar manager
who’s also turned things around,
he’s got us back to the Championship
and as a club without it’s own ground.
And well done to all of the players
Every one of you are a star,
and of course to Mark Robins
what a top manager you are.
So Coventry City are on the up
and back where they belong,
us fans are happy and jubilant
and all singing the Sky Blue Song !
