Rugged and tough as old boots
Fashioned from an iron girder
Bustled Harry Gregg into the net
And the fans yelled bloody murder
Starring in the Mathews final
Heroic against Austria
Thirty goals on national duty
Epitome of a humble superstar
One club man all the way
Shearer with advanced antenna
Goodbye Nat Lofthouse OBE
Farewell and goodnight Vienna
Number 7
