Cultural Customs

Argentina is known for all its people playing soccer

This has been going on before Betty Crocker The sport is called football in Argentina
Thats not something the people in the hood will tell ya
The Argentine people take this sport very seriously
Ever since the sport was created during the 19th century
Many people continue to plead
Since they lost their money to greed
As they tried to bet on the National Womens League
While that happens there are others that arise
And dont play the game just for the prize
They play this crazy game
So they can be put in the hall of fame
To them this sport is known as FIFA
This is the most popular recreational sport
That doesnt need a court
Soccer was brought to Argentines by the British
It all started when the people heard the swish
Of the ball slamming into the net
This is not something the British will every regret
They had started something great
And the Argentines people had no need for a debate
To decide that soccer was an amazing sport
That every one of all ages could play
Football, as they call it
Had changed their lives quite a bit
During the time of a national game
The streets would be empty and plane
It is like this till this very day
And every kid wishes they could be that good when they play

Not all the outcomes were go thought

And it wouldnt be long until someone would throw
A fist at another person by the end of the match
The day after, each person would have to have an eye patch
Throughout the league there many clubs
But teams didnt necessarily get along
So there were no hugs
But the sport did make the strong
And there is no way that can be wrong
With the new sport in the community
Nothing was going to be free
Once the stadiums was made
Economic difficulties began to fade
As it brought in all the dough
It made everyone just go with the flow
Now the sport has taken over the whole population
It has given people a great sensation
And hasnt seemed to cause inflation
