LL Cool J — Football Rap

[Chorus] It’s the sport of kings, better than Diamond Rings That’s why we’re here to sing Football Sunday in the snow, referee’s whistle blows We’ve been warriors toe-to-toe Football [Verse 1] For Old Timers, do you remember the names? Like Bronco Nagurski and Nightrain Lane Bulldog Turner, my man Sam Huff In the snow and mud, they were still real tough Crazylegs Hirsch and remember Raymond Berry? Ask me if they hit hard and I’ll say “Very!” Paul Christian, Buddy Young, Lenny Moore It’s them I adore, they seem to always score Ed Sprinkle, defensive end for those years Gene “Big Daddy” Lipscomb was the man to fear You had Steven Van Buren and Otto Graham Johnny Unitas had the arm of a Superman We had Charley Trippi and Gino Marchetti If you’re searching for a champion, they’re your best bet! Wish I could quarterback like Johnny Lujack Or even Sid Luckman as a matter of fact Do you remember Red Grange, the Galloping Ghost He could do a ninety-five running coast-to-coast You had Norm Van Brocklin, a real great player So swift with his moves that he could be mayor Y.A. Tittle, Ollie Matson, Hey! I remember all those guys, from back in the day [Chorus] It’s the sport of kings, better than Diamond Rings That’s why we’re here to sing Football Sunday in the snow, referee’s whistle blows Weekend warriors toe-to-toe Football Football Football Football
