We Love You Freddie

In honor of Freddie's return to Twitter I'm posting this classic. It should be said, there's nothing ridiculous at all about this one. This is Gooner gospel.  Continuing on the theme of boozy, throatily sung la-la's from the last Ridiculous Chant, this one mixes up the order to make perhaps the best intro of any player song. 

There's nothing like the build up of the da-da's and hitting maximum volume on the first "We love you Freddie." NY Gooners added another verse when his billboard popped up in Times Square. To quote the man himself, it's fucking excellent.


Daaa-da, daaa-da, daaa-da da-da da
Daaa-da, daaa-da, daaa-da da-da da
Daaa-da, daaa-da, daaa-da da-da da
Daaa-da, daaa-da

We love you Freddie
Because you've got red hair
We love you Freddie
Because you're everywhere
We love you Freddie
Because you're Arsenal through and through

We love you Freddie
Because you're in Times Square
We love you Freddie
even your underwear
We love you Freddie
Because you're Arsenal through and through
