The John Barnes Rap Lyrics

[James Corden]
You've got to hold and give but do it at the right time
[Jack Whitehall]
You can be slow or fast but you must get to the line
[Freddie Flintoff & James Corden]
They'll always hit you and hurt you
Oh yes, Fred
Defend and attack
[Ronnie O'Sullivan (w/James Corden)]
There's only one way to beat them
Get right round the back
[Christine Lampard]
Catch me if you can, cause I'm the England man
[Jamie Redknapp]
And what you're looking at is the master plan
[Jimmy Carr]
We ain't no hooligans, this ain't a football song
[James Corden & Jamie Redknapp]
Three lions on my chest, I know we can't go wrong

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
