LIVERPOOL BANNER FOR SALE - BND35.00 each (2 pcs only)
Red & White Kop
Sung to the tune of the Beatles 'Yellow Submarine', this was first heard at Anfield in the 1960s. In those days it was not uncommon for football fans to adapt the latest hit records into songs about their team and with Merseybeat all the rage, Liverpool fans did it better than most. Strangely however for a city so obsessed with football, The Beatles appeared to be the only four men in Liverpool who weren't interested in the game.


On a Saturday afternoon
We support a team called Liverpool
And we sing until we drop
In a red and white Spion Kop
We all live in a red and white Kop
A red and white Kop A red and white Kop
We all live in a red and white Kop
A red and white Kop
A red and white Kop
In a town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed the seas
And he told me of his pride
They were a famous football team
So we trailed to Anfield Road,
Singing songs of victory
And there we found the holy ground,
Of our hero Bill Shankly
We all live in red and white Kop…
