[Chorus]
G C
Why did I ever become a footba' referee
D G
I coulda been an engineer or a sailor on the sea
G C
Whenever there is a fault to find they always pick on me
D G
Why did I ever become a footba' referee
[Verse 1]
G C
I used tae play at center half when I was very young
D G
And sticking out for fair play I never could hold my tongue
G C
The men at the top were watching and they quickly spotted me
D G
They said, Now there is a decent man we'll make him a referee
[Chorus]
G C
Why did I ever become a footba' referee
D G
I coulda been an engineer or a sailor on the sea
G C
Whenever there is a fault to find they always pick on me
D G
Why did I ever become a footba' referee
[Verse 2]
G C
When first I took my whistle out I did feel very proud
D G
I played it like a fluter and I smiled at all the crowd
G C
I gave them two decisions then I heard a terrible boo
D G
For fifty thousand voices roared, Coconuts to you
[Chorus]
G C
Why did I ever become a footba' referee
D G
I coulda been an engineer or a sailor on the sea
G C
Whenever there is a fault to find they always pick on me
D G
Why did I ever become a footba' referee
[Verse 3]
G C
When Rangers played the Celtic I was stuck oot on the field
D G
I'd only been there a minute or two when the crowd began to squeal
G C
The half o' them said, He's a Fenian wi' a heart to Ireland
