Bill Shankly’s Dream

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 There is nothing quite like it
There is nothing so good
There is nothing that pours
With a fire in your blood

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 You will be for the dreamin
As you take to the red
And your heat is a fever
Think St Etienne

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 You’ll witness the glories
You’ll shed of the tears
And you’ll stand with your family
For days months and years

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 You’ll roar for the redmen
With your mates on The Kop
And once you start to go there
You’ll never want to stop

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Your Dad tells you stories
Of heroes and legends
Sweet the reign of Dalglish
Our greatest of redmen

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 And you’ll join in the songs
And the chants and the cheers
And your voice pounds the stars
With its hopes and its fears

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 And you’ll think of the legacy
That made all this you see
And we’ll drink from the cup that is
Bill Shankly’s Dream.
