Jimmy Johnstone

A small carroty red-haired character,
a small elf, if you like, awfully wee,
tiny Jinky Jimmy Johnstone.

A little winger for Scotland and Celtic FC
Punt me up over the turnstile,
lift me up, big man!

Could pass for a ball boy,
A hard worker, never missed training;
sit-ups, press-ups, very proactive in

Scotland and Portugal
that momentous day in Lisbon
in the European Cup

A great little dribbler,
a wee bit of magic on the field,
a small tiny elf, if you will,

awfully wee tiny Jinky
Jimmy Johnstone
he's on the park not the dug-out

He'll get a game wi' God's eleven
He who makes it all happen - in Hampden
and Heaven, the dream team for

awfully wee, tiny Jinky
Jimmy Johnstone -
his journey continues ...
