The Saints Go Marching In

Two great teams take the field In the end one must yield Does destiny not await fate Two quarterbacks who are great As giants collide on the line Receivers catch in perfect time Backs with power and speed Rise up to spread their seed Although, once again in the end Defense has a message to send New Orleans can finally grin As the, “Saints go marching in” Even though one team had to lose Every player filled champions shoes What a game huh, "I reckon, "who dat," proved who they are. Written for Brian's contest.
