Favourite Song from back in the day....

Recommended Posts

I guess this is directed more at the generation of fans who remember the days of terracing on The Barclay but on the buses that were laid on for City fans at Colchester from the Wetherspoons to the ground there were some chants that hadn''t been heard for years.  Was just wondering what peoples favourtie old songs were that have been consigned to the history books.  Personally i used to like the below but i''m not even going to start trying to describe the tune!

Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly

''Have you heard of the North Bank Highbury?''

Shanks said ''No i don''t think so but i''ve heard of the Norwich Barclay.''

So many of the great songs are about ipswich.

The monkees song about george burley reminds me of when i had my first season ticket in block P of the lower river. Allmost exactly 90 yards away from where i sit now. Man, you could still smoke and foxhunt, and we were even allowed to use some mild obscene language down there then. Good Times

Try again, most from the good days of the old real Barclay:

Knees up Mother Brown

Alouette jonti alouette (you''re a true old Barclay Boy if you ever sung that one, you''d be banned for life these days)

Music Man

If you want us come and get us

AG

AGR

AGRO

AGRO

Come an'' ''ave a go if you think you''re hard enough

All together ooohh together (when pushing through the thin blue or orange line into the other lot)

Come and join us over here

(sung at away games when we''d get split up)

There''s a Tavern in the town (in the town)

We are the skinheads hang around (hang around)

And if you want your heads kicked in etc

What''s the matter with you screw

Harry Roberts

We don''t carry hammers

We don''t carry lead

We just carry hatchets

To bury in you head

We are Norwich supporters

Fanatics everyone

We all hate Man City

Spurs and Everton

B***** is our leader

I was born under the Barclay stand

I was born under the Barclay stand

Boots are made for kicking, guns ae made to shoot

If you come up the Barclay stand we''ll all kick in the boot

I was born under a Barclay, Barclay, stand

We had joy, We had fun

We had Ipshit on the run

But the fun didn''t last

''cause the bastards ran too fast

(Sunderland sang that at us when they took over the Barclay in a 2-2 draw when they were threatened with relegation many years ago.

************************

Modern favourite to tune of Hi Ho Silver Lining:

Short, fat and ugly

Fake burberry hat

I''m from Wolverhampton

And I''m a f**king twat

I go down to Molineux

Every saturday

I go there with my boyfriend

Cos I am f**king gay

And it''s f**k off Wolverhampton

You''re a bunch of c**ts!

We''ll see you all next season

In Division One

It''s f**king obvious

************************

And for their neighbours:

Oh I do like to be beside tthe seaside

Oh I do like to be beside the sea

I do like to walk along the prom prom prom

Where the brass band plays "f**k off West Brom" "fuck off West Brom etc"

There are many more.
