A long time ago, before i was born
We once had a team that was always adored
With sidesteps and sideburns
and grand slams galore
Our magical boys
wrote their name in folklore
Through 80s and 90s
Our fortunes would fade
Though the passion and pride
would soon be repaid
in noughties the sweet song
would soon replace moans
we sang calon Lan
as the grand slam came home
singing 'dont let me down'
(I won't let you down)
I said 'Dont let me down'
(I won't let you down)
I said 'Dont let me down'
(I won't let you down)
I said 'Dont let me down'
(I won't let you down)
And we'll all hold hands
and drink to each others good health
and we'd all made plans
to thank the lord that we're born Welsh
and the more we drank
the more we sing calon lan
And we all hope Wales win the grand slam
Now the new generation
Is quiet and calm
Made us proud at the world cup
with flare in your charm
And we'll always remember
Your red carded pain
You gave it your best, boys
we'd never complain
so with wingers like mountains
and forwards who step
We'll sing land of my fathers
and never forget
Of our sideburns and sidesteps
and all that before
Now this is your time, boys
It's your turn to score
singing 'dont let me down'
(I won't let you down)
I said 'Dont let me down'
(I won't let you down)
I said 'Dont let me down'
(I won't let you down)
I said 'Dont let me down'
(I won't let you down)
And we'll all hold hands
and drink to each others good health
and we'll all made plans
to thank the lord that we're born Welsh
and the more we drink
the more we sing calon lan
And we all hope Wales win the grand slam
And we'll all hold hands
and drink to each others good health
and we'll all made plans
to thank the lord that we're born Welsh
and the more we drink
the more we sing calon lan
And we all hope Wales win the grand slam
And we all hope Wales win the grand slam
