Footy’s on, footy’s here again
Back to greet me like an old friend and

[Chorus]

That’s what I like about
Yeah, that’s the thing about
The thing about football
(Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)

We’ll argue over who’s gonna win
He’ll go for his team, I for mine
We’ll watch ’em slug it out right 'til the end and

[Verse 3]
I got a long road to walk down
To catch a tram to my favourite ground
Use my legs, use my voice
Make some noise, support the boys, and

[Pre-Chorus 2]
That’s what football means to me
That’s how I like my footy to be, and

[Chorus]
Well, that’s the thing about
