We were three points down with just seconds left
I hid my face and held my breath
It looked like Cwebb and Mike Bibby could
Overthrow our dynasty
Then Kobe drove but Kobe missed Shaq could not put
Down the tip Vlade slapped it out but it was still
Alive and it bounced right to number five

Chorus
And oh the skies were grey but everything's ok
There's sunshine in LA with one brilliant play
Robert Horry saved the day

He doesn't get commercial spots
He just hits game winning shots
Though they haven't made a Sports Century
He's a superstar to me
The Lakers are my favorite team
I love Magic, Wilt, West and Kareem
But one day in the rafters high
I hope they hang up number five
