A tribute to Boom-Boom Bumrah, who I think is a real tub-thumper of a bowler.

(and whose main nickname I believe is Jassi)

India's winning

When Jassi's swingin'

India's winning...

When the bails are zingin'

He knocks 'em down, they put 'em up again

But he's just gonna knock them down

He knocks 'em down, they put 'em up again

But he's just gonna knock them down

Swinging the ball away

Swing 'em the other way..

He bowls the outie ball, he bowls the inny ball

He bowls the slower ball, he bowls the yorker ball

He bowls the balls that give batters the bad times

He bowls the balls that give India the better times

Oh Jassi-boy, Jassi-boy, Jassi-boy

He knocks 'em down, they put 'em up again

But he's just gonna knock them down

He knocks 'em down, they put 'em up again

But he's just gonna knock them down

Swinging the ball away..

Swing 'em the other way..

He knocks 'em down, they put 'em up again

But he's just gonna knock them down

He knocks 'em down, they put 'em up again

But he's just gonna knock them down

Don't cry for me

Was too good for me

Says poor ol' Ollie

He knocks 'em down, they put 'em up again

But he's just gonna knock them down

He knocks 'em down, they put 'em up again

But he's just gonna knock them down

(repeat until bored)
