To the tune of Amarillo - Tony Christie (no surprise!!!)


League One is dawning
Three points off Port Vale by morning
Then its Bradford, Walsall
In the New Year its upto the Blackpool
Bournemouth, Tranmere Rovers, they'll be no test
Even Nottingham Forest, at their very best

Chorus
Is this the way to Bristol City
Gillingham, we will show them no pity
MK Dons and Swansea City
League One awaits the Blues
The trip north east to the Hartlepool
Then down south west to the Yeovil
Barnsley will be made to look fools
League One awaits the Blues

League One awaits the Blues

Rotherham a home banker
Brentford and Col U are just W**KERS
Scunthorpe and Huddersfield
Donny Rovers and the Chesterfield
Swindon and the Oldham, will definatley lose
With Tilson and Brush, leading the Mighty Blues

Repeat Chorus

League One awaits the Blues


I think I got every team in, sadly won't be there to here the rendition!!!
 
I remember someone wrote a lengthy song about Martyn Margetson and passed the lyrics around the South Upper. It too was fairly lengthy and the vast majority of the potential choir lost interest after the third or fourth line and proceeded to construct a vast array of paper planes out of the lyric sheets and bombard Margetson instead.

I've always thought that terrace songs should be kept as simple as possible unless it is a direct adaption of a well-known ditty, such as Liverpool's 'You'll Never Walk Alone'. I remember not so long ago we had a song for David McSweeney to the tune from 'The Sweeney" (which was also adapted for McScriven) and hummed the tune to "Knight Rider" for young Michael Kightly (which his family absolutely loved). Simple but effective. Many years ago there was a great song for that buffoon Gary Poole ... who remembers it?!

'Gary Poole,
Gary Poole,
Gary Gary Poole,
He gets the ball,
He Does $%&* all,
Gary Gary Poole'

If my memory serves me right!

I think the song is brilliant. It may not work on the terraces (mainly coz weve lost to Port Vale already) but it is a fantastic effort
 
I think it's a clever song and I applaud Prague Blue's creativity. However XS is right, it will never catch on. If that song ever gets sung all the way through by the Southend crowd I will eat one of the soiled nappies XS spoke about earlier in the thread.
