PARTY boy Jack Grealish belted out a rap song from the Man City team bus as he led their Champions League celebrations into the early hours yesterday.
The England ace, 27, repeatedly poked his head out of the sunroof, yelling “woo!” before they set off.

Jack had knocked back beers and belted out Blues chants with his teammates in the dressing room after they beat Inter Milan 1-0 in the Champions League final to complete their historic Treble.
The winger sang a version of Fleetwood Mac’s Everywhere with lyrics altered to turn it into a City tune.
After the match in Istanbul, City’s £100million record signing was close to tears as he told what the achievement meant to him.
Brummie Jack said: “Anyone that knows me knows how much of a family person I am and how much I love football and, I don’t know . . . this is what I’ve worked for my whole life.
“You think back to all the people that have helped you and just seeing my family in the crowd, it makes me emotional.”
Grealish toasted the victory by sharing a kiss with girlfriend Sasha Attwood, also 27, on the pitch.
City’s aces, manager Pep Guardiola and their loved ones then went back to the five-star JW Marriott Hotel Istanbul Marmara Sea to carry on the party.
Grealish, Kyle Walker and others raved until 8.30am local time.
Goal machine Erling Haaland puffed on a cigar and declared his love for Grealish in an Instagram selfie.
Walker was seen holding a microphone with a bottle of booze next to him in an 8.30am Instagram snap.
City had an exclusive bash with a dancefloor, DJ decks and disco balls in a conference room and adjacent space outside.
The equipment, booze and hotel space is likely to have cost hundreds of thousands of pounds.
The partying players showed no signs of slowing down as they departed the hotel — goalie Ederson was holding a bottle of Asahi on the team coach at 11.55am.
The “big-eared” Champions League trophy was bundled on to the bus as City made their way to the airport.
Players continued the celebrations yesterday afternoon during the three-and-a-half-hour flight home from Istanbul.
Belgian midfield maestro Kevin De Bruyne, who limped off with an injury in the first half of the final, posed wearing the golden crown from the Premier League trophy.
The Belgian, 31, also bantered with Grealish.
And local lad Phil Foden, 23, who came on for De Bruyne, could not stop smiling on the jet to Manchester.
Guardiola led his squad off the club’s custom jumbo, hoisting aloft City’s first Champions League trophy alongside skipper Ilkay Gundogan, 32.
Hundreds of fans lined the exterior fences of Manchester Airport to welcome their side home.
City are now set to embark on an open-top bus parade through Manchester, starting at 6.30pm tonight.
Thousands of fans will glimpse their Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League trophies.
Some 30,000 fans had descended on Istanbul, with midfielder Rodri’s 67th-minute strike breaking the deadlock.
Ex-boxing world champ Ricky Hatton, 44, was among them.
But Oasis legends Noel and Liam Gallagher did not attend.
Noel, 56, on tour in the US, watched with fans in San Diego, California.
After the game, he said: “Tonight, the Manchester rain will taste like champagne. This is the end of the beginning. This is only the start.”
