Colour of Your Jumper (demo) Songtext
von Archie Roach

I remember when I was a lad
Kicking a footie round′ my back yard
Me and the cousins,we tried to kick a goal
What a time we had
Oh we played real hard
Yeah we played with our heart and soul
Cuz' its the best game in the world for young and old

Its my football team (oh oh oh)
Yeah my football team (oh oh ohh)
Putting down a player is tryna′ put him off his game
Oh my football team (oh oh oh)
Yeah my football team (oh oh ohh)
Well its the colour of your jumper,not the colour of your skin


Neighbors across the way
Come over and play a game
Kicking the ball on the house and out the car
And when we start to play
You know I went insane
Cuz' I thought I was a football star
And everybody came to see me, from near and far

Me and my football team (oh oh oh)
Yeah my football team (oh oh ohh)
Now putting down a player is tryna' put him off his game
For my football team (oh oh oh)
Yeah my football team (oh oh ohh)
Well its the colour of your jumper, not the colour of your skin

Well you can put down a player
You can put down a team
You can never put down who we are
You can never put down a young man′s dream
Of becoming a football star

Yeah my football team (oh oh oh)
Oh my football team (oh oh ohh)
Putting down a player is tryna′ put him off his game
For my football team (oh oh oh)
Yeah my football team (oh oh ohh)
Well its the colour of your jumper, not the colour of your skin
Yeah its the colour of your jumper, not the colour of your skin!
