On the soccer field we play,
With our cleats laced up all day,
We use our feet to dribble and pass,
And shoot the ball towards the goal at last.

But we must be careful, you see,
To play by the rules fairly,
We must not foul or cheat,
And always respect our opponent's feet.

The referee is there to allow,
A fair game for all to play and wow,
To protect us from harm and strife,
And make sure we all have a fun life.

So let's run and play on the field,
With teamwork and sportsmanship we yield,
For when the game is done and complete,
We'll all be winners, what a treat!
