What's the Yam Yam chant?

[Ramdoc]

Could someone enlighten me about this song which I enjoyed and haven't heard before.

It's a pee take of the Black Country accent. It's what brummies & other regions call some one from the Black Country. There's lots of 'am's' & 'ay's' in the dialect. Hence the dingles( sorry wolves fans) singing 'wolves ay we?' As in wolves aren't we. Hope this helps.

Oh & don't ever call a yam yam a brummie! As bad as calling a Scotsman English!!

do you mean what the wolves fans were chanting or us calling them yam yams?

you must be a young un if you've never heard us dish that out to wolves and Birmingham :-P

the best way of explaining it is listen to a black county'er say 'I am' and what you get is 'I yam'.
