In twenty-twenty-three we thought we had it made
The day we went ten and one it seemed we could go all the way
Yet every victory was met with great dismay
Banking on field goals to save the day
In the off season we added some new recruits
Dejean, Mitchell, and Baun to name a few
But there was one player who would change the game
And bring Philadelphia back to their fame
Number twenty-six
The one who put Philly back in the mix
Saquon Barkley is his name
And for the Eagles' success, he is to blame
He's the one running back in the league every defense has failed to attack
As he moves down the field, the entire stadium is taken aback
He shocked the world by jumping so high
In a backwards hurdle that made millions chant "fly eagles fly"
Since then, not a week has gone by without that same victory cry
Saquon Barkley,
He is our hero
Without him, our morale would be at a zero
He is the backbone of this city
Out-doing even Gritty
The NFL is amazed
And by all of Philadelphia, he is praised
Saquon Barkley,
He is our number one
Hoping he can bring us to the victory line
At Superbowl fifty-nine
