SHANKLY IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS (remix)

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With red flags all flying high up to the skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A man with the reds in his eyes
Beautiful songs as the Kop starts to sing
You’ll Never Walk Alone
Look for the man with the reds in his eyes
And he’s gone
Shankly in the sky with diamonds
Shankly in the sky with diamonds
Shankly in the sky with diamonds
Follow him down to a road there in Anfield
Where Reds all meet for pint and a pie
Everyone smiles as he drifts past the Kopites
Their scarves held incredibly high
18 League titles appear on the shore
FA Cups and UEFA’s
4 Euro Cups appear from the clouds
And he’s gone
Shankly in the sky with diamonds
Shankly in the sky with diamonds
Shankly in the sky with diamonds
Picture yourself on the Spion at Anfield
The Redmen are waiting there down on the park
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The man with the Reds in his heart
Shankly in the sky with diamonds
Shankly in the sky with diamonds
Shankly in the sky with diamonds.
