1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 We all tried to copy your passes
When we were kids
After watching you split open
The best defences
But we couldn’t match you
No one could, tho they tried
There was only ever one “Razor”
Shanks knew, and so did Bob…
God bless your heart
You gave us pride
The Liver Bird found a haven
Perched upon your chest
Found no better home than with
The quiet man
Whose dignified boots
Spoke words of wisdom, glory, truth
The Liverpool Way.
