Jimmy Jimmy Johnstone on the ball…

He was Born in Viewpark 1944 The Celts were soon knocking upon his door He became the one the fans adore He had every defender on the floor and he loved the Celtic with all his heart and soul He came from School with his flame red hair A Celt through and through with out a care When he was on the ball the fans would stare At his skill and cheek and his natural flare and he loved the Celtic with all his heart and soul I would sing, wee Jimmy Johnstone on the wing Jimmy Jimmy Johnstone on the ball, in our hearts he was best of all I would sing, wee Jimmy Johnstone lord of the wing Jimmy Jimmy Johnstone we’ll not forget, hey Jimmy will we see your likes again. His first game was March 1963 When he played his first game for his favourite team He was proud to wear the hoops of green He was the greatest Celt there’s ever been and he loved the Celtic with all my heart and soul He drove Jock mad with banter and crack, He never would defend always attack He would beat his man he had the knack Bravery was an actual fact and he loved the Celtic with all my heart and soul
