Proud To Be An Arab Lyrics
Walk the hill, slowly down
Get all of Saturday's news
From the back of the Grampian end
All Fife's kingdom is in view
The pitch it looks like Blackpool
Sound and light and tangerine
When Andy Dickson's treatment time comes
The Dens reserve game can be seen
And I'm Proud To Be An Arab
Proud of my home team
And I'm Proud To Be An Arab
Old times...and new
The half-time scores make a rusty rising
The crowd are glad of the news
Warmed by the Bovril and the scoreline
The Old Firm 1, Dundee 2
And I'm Proud To Be An Arab
Proud of my home team
Yes I'm Proud To Be An Arab
Old times...and new
About Rickys football team, Dundee United, nicknamed The Arabs. Nickname supposedly comes from a game where they played in all white and their pitch had been covered in too much sand, the locals thought the players looked like Arabs. That will explain the line about the pitch looking like Blackpool, must mean the beach there...
