Proud To Be An Arab

Deacon Blue


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
