Words to an Older Saints Song

Anybody know the lyrics to a song I believe is entitled 'History of the Saints"? It's from the 80's, and I know most of the words, but some of them I just can't figure out.

Oh when the Saints first came to town
When ______ and ______ was around
When ______ just had one number
That's when that Who Dat fever came to town.

Who could forget Old Archie Who
And Who Dat kicked twice as far with half his shoe
________ could not believe the numbers
They came to scream and shout and whoop.

Do you recall dem Aints? Now that's a drag
80,000 people all wearing bags
Yeah 80,000....did you hear that number
If they could just beat Atlanta I'd be glad.

Then one day along came a bum
With some ideas that seemed to work where he come from
Well I'll say this, he did improve the numbers
We thought for sure our day had come.

They had these rumors going round
It said dem Saints was gonna leave dat Who Dat town
But the Who Dats came out in numbers
They sure turned that idea around.

Now the Who Dats are dancing again
They do the Benson Boogie every time they win
Now everybody's singing Who Dat!
They know they're gonna boogie again.

Because the New Orleans Saints are winners!
Now everybody sing along.

(Oh when the Saints go marching in)

Can anybody fill in those blanks?
Thanks!
