Great Anfield Sides

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 They played with committment
They played with such pride
Those wonderful teams
Those great Anfield sides

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 From the sixties with Shankly
When the Beatles were kings
And the Kopites in full voice
Taught the whole world to sing

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 The 70’s swaggered
With glam rock and flares
Whilst we worshipped Keegan
And our team took to perms

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Bob’s grand lads were mighty
And conquered with ease
We were winning for fun
And had teams on their knees

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Then the reign of the 3 Jocks
And the Angels they sighed
At the skills of Dalglish
When he left Christ we cried

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 There was Aldo and Beardsley
Flowing like a red sea
Whislt Digger sent missiles
From his WMD’s

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Now we’ve Harry and Didi
We’ve St Mike and Stevie G
We need us some heroes
And new songs to sing

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 We’ve got a cup treble
And for that we give thanks
But “if you’re second you’re nothing”
Whispers the ghost of dear Shanks.
