Shoes' of Saban

 Very recent news about one of greatest, if not the greatest, collage football coaches retiring. Here's my ode to the great man.

Shoes' of Saban


It was '07 in T-town

A struggling team

Was about to be turned around 

A new man came to town

He held his shoes up high


When he made Tebow cry

You know this was a different man

A man with a mission 

A man with a plan

Ain't no one like him


And people are now wondering 

Who's gonna wear the shoes

The shoes' of Saban

Who's gonna wear

The shoes' of Saban

Who's gonna wear those shoes


Six rings under his belt

In seventeen years

A winning man

With a winning team


It started in the granddaddy of them all

Against longhorns

Just another win

For the man with the plan


He had his revenge in '12

21-0

Then went back to back

Defeated the Irish 

What a time


Then the Elephant 

Had a tiger fight

A back an forth 

Almost like a rivalry 

And I'm not talking 

About the Iron Bowl

And some fights 

With ol' bulldogs


And people are now wondering 

Who's gonna wear the shoes

The shoes' of Saban 

Who's gonna wear

The shoes' of Saban

 Who's gonna wear those shoes


No one knows

No one knows

No one knows

I said, no one knows 


Who's gonna replace 

The legend of T-town

So much under his belt

So much to fill


Who's gonna replace the shoes

The shoes' of Saban 

Who's gonna replace the shoes

The shoes' of Saban

Who's gonna wear those 

legend's shoes

Those legend's shoes


And don't fumble the ball

Run the ball

And don't fumble the ball

Run the ball

And don't fumble the ball

Run the ball


Thank you Mr. Saban

Thank you Mr. Saban 

Thank you Mr. Saban

Thank you Mr. Saban

Thank you, Mr. Saban

For your time

For your time

For your time


And may your heart be

Crimson and white

And may your heart be

Crimson and white

Roll tide

Roll tide
