The Mersey Beat
The songs and chants pouring down onto the pitch from The Kop and surrounding stands is just as synonymous with Liverpool Football Club as their Red Kit, Style of Play, and their jam-packed trophy cabinet. When one looks at those three entities together, they all blend. Red. When you see that color, you think of fun, stylish, fast, all out. That’s exactly how this club has played for most of its history. Always on the front foot. That lead to the dominance; Domestic and abroad in the late ’70s and throughout the ’80s. Even into the ’90s, when things weren’t always great, they always had that player upfront who was worth the price of admission. We would never “Park the Bus”. And what fuels that? What makes a man want to make the impossible possible? What drives a comeback in Istanbul? What drives two Center Backs to score in the last fifteen minutes against Dortmund? What gives the local lad the balls to take a corner quickly? The supporters. With their songs and chants of stories from European Travels, Glory, and Triumph. To songs about their favorite players. They are just as much of the team’s history as the kits, trophies, and players.
The songs are numerous and we here at American Scouser came up with twenty so far to put down for you guys. Next time you’re at the pub, or even at home, and the Kop starts singing, now you can sing along.
Songs About the Club
When you walk through a storm, hold your head up high
And don’t be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm, there’s a golden sky
And the sweet, silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your hearts
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your hearts
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone
We’ve conquered all of Europe
We’re never gonna stop
From Paris Down to Turkey
We’ve won the fucking lot.
Bob Paisley and Bill Shankly
The fields of Anfield Road
We are loyal supporters
And we’ve come from Liverpool
Allez Allez Allez!
LIVERPOOL LIVERPOOL LIVERPOOL
We are Liverpool, tra la la la la la,
We are Liverpool, tra la la la la,
The best football team in the world – yes we are!
Poetry in motion, tra la la la la la,
Poetry in motion, tra la la la la,
The best football team in the world – yes we are!
The shitty Man Utd went to Rome to see the Pope.
The shitty Man Utd went to Rome to see the Pope.
The shitty Man Utd went to Rome to see the Pope and this is what he said “FUCK OFF”.
Who the fuck are Man Utd?
Who the fuck are Man Utd?
Who the fuck are Man Utd?
As the Reds go marching on on on
Fuck off Chelsea FC
You aint got no history,
5 European cups,
18 leagues
That’s what we call history!
Let me tell you the story of a poor boy
Who was sent far away from his home.
To fight for his king and his country
and also the old folks back home .
So they put him in a Highland division
Sent him off to a far, foreign land.
Where the flies swarm around in their thousands
and there’s nothing to see but the sand.
Well, the battle it started next morning
Under the Libyan sun.
I remember that poor scouser Tommy
he was shot by an old nazi gun. (What the Fuck)
As he lay on the battlefield dying( dyin dyin)
with the blood pouring out of his head (of his head)
As he lay on the battlefield dying (dyin dyin)
These were the last words he said
Ohhhh I am a Liverpudlian
and I come from The Spion Kop.
I like to sing , I like to shout
I go there quite a lot (Every Week)
We support the team that Plays in Red
Its a team that you all know.
Its a team that we call Liverpool
to glory we will go.
We’ve won the league
We’ve won the cup
We’ve been to Europe too
And we played the toffees for a laugh
and left them feeling blue (five nil)
1,2
1,2,3
1,2,4,5
5-0 !
Rush scored 1
Rush scored 2
Rush Scored 3
and Rush scored 4
Divock scored in Spain.
And the Reds went fucking insane.
Fourteen years, now we’re Kings of Europe Once More.
We won it six times, We won it six times,
We went to Madrid, and won it six times.
We’ve been to PSG and Napoli, Belgrade and Germany
And then we went to Allianz and Liverpool scored 3!
Porto, Barcelona who the fuck you trying to kid
Cause we’re the mighty Liverpool & We won it in Madrid!
We won it in Madrid!
We shall not,
We shall not be moved,
We shall not,
We shall not be moved,
Just Like a team that’s going to win the European Cup (Again)
We shall not be moved.
