The Lyrics

How old is this song? It came out in 1955, and since then, the Toronto Maple Leafs have won 4 Stanley Cups. But none since 1967.
Maple Leafs!
Why do you wear blue?
Oh, Maple Leafs!
It sure fits your mood!
You ain't startin' back winning the games you used to do!

Well, Mats Sundin, he is way over the hill.
And Nik Antropov had a very big spill
Andy Raycroft has a heavy load.
"Red Light," nickname, "bad goalie" in code.
In the third period, trailing by five.
You'll never see a new Cup while you're alive.

Maple Leafs!
Why do you wear blue?
Oh, Maple Leafs!
It sure fits your mood!
You ain't startin' back winning the games you used to do!

The penalty minutes, a hundred and four.
Cup in sixty-seven, won't win it no more.
Team under cloud thanks to Ballard's reign.
Cliff Fletcher fails to help 'em again.
John Ferguson Junior can't make a trade.
Look at the mess their management made.

Maple Leafs!
Why do you wear blue?
Oh, Maple Leafs!
It sure fits your mood!
You ain't startin' back winning the games you used to do!

(guitar break)

Maple Leafs!
Why do you wear blue?
Oh, Maple Leafs!
It sure fits your mood!
You ain't startin' back winning the games you used to do!

The team, it cooled down.
They play like clown.
And that's when they heard that booing sound.
Bryan McCabe, like a ton of lead
scored in wrong goal to put the wrong team ahead.
Maple Leafs skating like they're standing still.
They won't be the team on top of the hill.

Maple Leafs!
Why do you wear blue?
Oh, Maple Leafs!
It sure fits your mood!
You ain't startin' back winning the games you used to do!

Could be worse .. Caps fans like me will likely wait (at least) another 555 years for a Cup. :-)

Being a life long Canuck, I hear ya. It almost seems that Harold Ballard bought the team just to have a writeoff every year. At least the Habs have a better legacy.lol (although definitely room to improve there also) Good Job. 555
