1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 He sailed into the port of Liverpool
He came in peace to stay
To teach the lads about our past
Shankly’s Liverpool Way

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 He knows the words to all our songs
And joins in with the Kop
He’s won our hearts and minds and souls
And now we pray we’ll win the Big Cup

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 He’s quiet reserved gets on with the game
Doesn’t try to make a show
He answers all their questions like
But doesn’t preen his fragile ego

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 It’s how we like our football here
Bob’s modest glory loved
Joe Fagan he was one of us
And Rafa’s down the pub!

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 History talks in titles here
Of that we’re mighty proud
And even if this year we win sod all
We’re still the finest football crowd.

Notes

Whatever the result on Tuseday night the Kop Voice will be heard across the football globe….

COME ON YOU REDMEN!

“I was born by the banks of the Mersey
Facin’ the Irish Sea
It might not look like heaven to you
But its home sweet home to me”
