He's a scuffy little kid from the Moss Side

he plays for the Moss Side Reds,

him and his they practice each night

one lot United the other lot City

playing the beuatiful game.

 

At school he's not the brighest,

some say he's got an empty head

but he's got his mates and

he's content with that

the scuffy little kid from the Moss.

 

One day when he's older

who is to say

he won't be wearing

the Red of United or even the

Sky Blue of the Blues.

 

Playing for England at Wembley,

scoring that World Cup goal

still playing the beuatiful game,

that scuffy little kid from the Moss.
