1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Have you seen King Kenny
In his Crown of Anfield shinin’
Kickin’ up the ball
In his golden football boots
In his eyes you see the pride
Rushie playin’ at his side
Chasin’ Kopite dreams, makin’ Kopite dreams come true

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 So how can you tell me you’re lonely
And say for you that the sun don’t shine
Let me take you by the hand and show you round the streets of Anfield
I’ll show you something that will make you change your mind

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Have you seen Bill Shankly
He’s there down the streets of Anfield
Ball in his hand and his shirt in a bag
He’s got time for talkin’
With his Kopites he’s still walkin’
Carryin’ their hopes on his strong Scottish back

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 So how can you tell me you’re lonely
And say for you that the sun don’t shine
Let me take you by the hand and show you round the streets of Anfield
I’ll show you something that will make you change your mind

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Oh have you heard the Sons of Spion
On the terrace sweetly singin’
Stevie G a Kopite hero
Their hearts he proudly wears
In our Liverpool City
There’ll be praises, never pity
For one more Redman hero
On his chest the Liver Bird

I’ll show you something that will make you change your mind
