Fourth And Four

Fourth & four on their twenty yard line,
Ten seconds to go, running out of time,
Down by four, the biggest play to begin,
A true test of power, so it’s time to dig in.
 
Hut, hut, - hut, a fake to the running back,
Who becomes a blocker, can’t take a sack,
Receivers taking secondary into the end-zone,
Tight end’s drifting out into the seam alone.
 
The ball’s in the air, all fingers crossed,
The season’s on the line, can’t take a loss,
A tall tight end against two short linebackers,
The perfect match-up, so that’s all that matters.
He jumps high in the air and snatches the ball.
He carries them to the end-zone. Hallelujah we won.
