C'mon, you know the tune . . .
Hello out there, we're off the air,
No hockey played tonite
Well dontcha know, that Bettman blows
And the pucks are put on ice
The lights are out, no sticks about,
And the news is so inane
Someone roars "TALK NO MORE!"
We want a good ol’ hockey game
Chorus:
Oh, the good ol’ hockey game
Is the best game you can name
And the best game you can name
Is the good ol’ hockey game
2nd period:
Where players clash
In search of cash
The owners locked ‘em out
But they packed right up
Went to ol’ Europe
It just makes you want to shout
The owners stink
That’s what I think
They’re gonna ruin this fine game
They run and hide
They say they tried . . .
But ain’t gonna be no hockey game!
Chorus:
Oh, the good ol’ hockey game
Is the best game you can name
And the best game you can name
Is the good ol’ hockey game
3rd period: last game . . . maybe ever, too...
Oh take me where the hockey players face off down the rink
And the Stanley Cup is all filled up for the chaps who win the drink
Now the final flick of the hockey stick and a one gigantic scream
The puck is in! The home team wins! The good ole hockey game!
Chorus:
Oh, the good ol’ hockey game
Is the best game you can name
And the best game you can name
Is the good ol’ hockey game
