Big names falling and Andy blowing others apart
Nadal went early and Federer soon followed
‘Come on Andy’ the crowd loudly bellowed
Into the semi final and the nerves soon began
The pressure of the nation together as one fan
After a nervous beginning he was soon in his stride
To lift the nation and let us beam with pride
Sunday upon us and a glorious day a head
‘I’ll do my best’ is what Andy quietly said
Playing down the expectation but will it work
You know if he wins the nation will go berserk
He enters centre court with his professional face
After 77 years of waiting history could take place
His desire to make every ball and deliver the perfect shot
Down the line, cross court he kept pulling them from the pot
The crowd looking on from good old Henman Hill
Some people unable to watch, feeling quite ill
The final shot of the match and a standing ovation
A Scottish tennis player that lifted the British Nation
At last a British Champion at SW19
Fred Perry was the last one the nation had seen
We hope the next one comes along in a hurry
But for now the Wimbledon Champion is our own Andy Murray
