Pass The Football Lyrics - Singles - Wonderful Town

Look at me now 

Four years of college 

Famous professors 

Tutoring me 

Scholarship kid 

Everything paid for 

Food and vacations 

All of it free 

Day that I left 

Everyone gathered 

Their cheering still rings in my ears 

Ray Wreck rah 

Rah Wreck Ray 

Rah Wreck 

Wreck rah 

Rah Wreck, Wreck 

Wreck, we love you 

'Cause I could pass that football 

Like nothin' you have ever seen 

Couldn't spell a lick 

Couldn't do arithmetic 

One and one made three 

Thought that dog was C A T 

But I could pass that football 

Like nothin' you have ever seen 

Couldn't write my name 

Couldn't translate 'je vous aime' 

Never learned to read 

Mother Goose or Andre Gide 

But I could pass that football 

Like nothin' you have ever seen 

Couldn't figure riddles 

Puzzles made me pout 

Where the hell was Moses 

When the lights went out? 

I couldn't even tell red from green 

Get those verbs through my bean 

But I was buddies with the dean 

Like nothin' you have ever seen 

Passed without a fuss 

English Lit. and Calculus 

Never had to cram 

Even passed the bar exam 

'Cause I passed that football 

Like nothin' you have ever seen 

Couldn't dance for beans 

Mashed my girls to smithereens 

Sometimes blood was spilled 

Still my card was always filled 

'Cause I could pass that football 

Like nothin' you have ever seen 

Then there was the week 

Albert Einstein came to speak 

'Relativity' 

Guess who introduced him? Me 

'Cause I could pass that football 

Like nothin' you have ever seen 

Had no table manners 

Used to dunk my roll 

Always drunk the water from the fingerbowl 

Though I would not get up for any she 

The prexy's Mom, age ninety-three 

Got up and gave her seat to me 

Like nothin' you did ever see 

In our hall of fame 

There's a statue with my name 

There we stand, by heck 

Lincoln, Washington and Wreck 

'Cause I could pass that football 

Like nothin' you have ever, ever seen
