We're a Happy Band
« on: October 8, 2012, 04:57:09 pm »
We sing our songs with joy and pride,
Every time we watch our side,
In all the league we are top
We're members of the mighty Kop [mighty Kop]

Chorus
Liverpool supporters we're a happy band (e aye addio)
That's because we're following the best team in the land.

We're leaving in the morning light,
Flying on a chartered plane,
By noon we'll be in Budapest,
By nine we'll know which team is best (team is best)

Hungarians may laugh and grin,
But wait till Roger bangs one in,
And St. John will make them frown,
We'll bring the irion curtain down (curtain down)

Their ghoulash may be up to scratch,
But that won't help them win the match,
When the winning goal brings down the house,
They'll all resort to eating scouse (eating scouse).

I've heard this song being played but can't work out the tune of it? Is it an original tune?

Found this, but I can't find any mention of the song or lyrics for it apart from this video, so I guess it's an original of ours.

Love this song, would be great to see (hear) it resurrected...
They have life in them, they have humour, they're arrogant, they're cocky and they're proud. And that's what I want my team to be.

It's not a tune I know that, the chorus at least should be identifiable to someone? Does anyone recognise the tune?

Is that the infamous Stan Kelly singing it?
