Norfolk Dan 308 Posted May 6, 2004 My mates dad told me that OTBC is not sung properly at Carrow Road any longer.. He said that when the whole song was sung it would send shivers down his spine...So here it is... OTBC as you may not know it......On the days to call, which we have left behind,Our boyhood’s glorious game,And our youthful vigour has declinedWith its mirth and its lonesome end;You will think of the time, the happy time,Its memories fond recallWhen in the bloom of your youthful primeWe’ve kept upon the ballKick off, throw it in, have a little scrimmage,Keep it low, a splendid rush, bravo, win or die;On the ball, City, never mind the danger,Steady on, now’s your chance,Hurrah! We’ve scored a goal.Let all tonight then drink with meTo the football game we love,And wish it may successful beAs other games of old,And in one grand united toastJoin player, game and songAnd fondly pledge your pride and toastSuccess to the City club.Kick off, throw it in, have a little scrimmage,Keep it low, a splendid rush, bravo, win or die;On the ball, City, never mind the danger,Steady on, now’s your chance,Hurrah! We’ve scored a goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FatMan Fat 0 Posted May 6, 2004 Why do we want the music to the whole thing? You don''t expect us to learn ALL the words do you :-P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norfolk Dan 308 Posted May 7, 2004 I am sure that the whole song is avaiable somewhere on the net... I will find it and post the link.... I think It would just sound amazing... I might have to write the words on the back on my hand! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
