The Hockey Song
Song by Stompin’ Tom Connors
Hello out there, we’re on the air, it’s ‘Hockey Night’ tonight.
Tension grows, the whistle blows, and the puck goes down the ice.
The goalie jumps, and the players bump, and the fans all go insane.
Someone roars, “Bobby Scores!”, at the good ol’ Hockey Game.
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.
Second Period.
Where players dash, with skates aflash, the home team trails behind.
But they grab the puck, and go bursting up, and they’re down across the line.
They storm the crease, like bumble bees, they travel like a burning flame.
We see them slide, the puck inside, it’s a one-one hockey game.
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.
Third Period. Last game of the playoff too!
Oh take me where, the hockey players, face off down the rink.
And the Stanley Cup, is all filled up, for the champs who win the drink.
Now the final flick, of a hockey stick, and the one gigantic scream.
“The puck is in! The home team wins!”, the good ol’ hockey game.
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.
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.
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.
