You'll be hearing this a lot tonight, if you can make out what the Scousers are actually singing. Just thought I'd put a Barnsley theme to it. Check this slow version out if you don't know how it goes. The Liverpool fans sing it with much more gusto though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGnFHcJEmBw Outside the Ponty End I heard a Reds fan calling : Preedy they have taken you away But you left a great eleven Before you went to heaven Now it's glory round the Fields of Oakwell Lane. All round the Fields of Oakwell Lane Where once we watched the King Ronnie play (and he could play) We had Marcelle on the wing We had dreams and songs to sing Of the glory round the Fields of Oakwell Lane Outside the Ponty End I heard a Reds fan calling Danny they have taken you away.. You led the great 11 Back in April of 97 And the redmen they are still playing the same way All round the Fields of Oakwell Lane Where once we watched the King Ronnie play (and he could play) We had Marcelle on the wing We had dreams and songs to sing Of the glory round the Fields of Oakwell Lane.
Technically, it's not a Scouse song... It's derived from the Fields Of Athenry - an old Irish "rebel" song (one of the softer ones, admittedly) and sung by the Celtic fans... By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl call: "Michael, they have taken you away, For you stole Trevelyn's corn, So the young might see the morn. Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay." Low lie the fields of Athenry Where once we watched the small free birds fly Our love was on the wing We had dreams and songs to sing It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry. By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man call "Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free Against the famine and the crown, I rebelled, they cut me down. Now you must raise our child with dignity." Low lie the fields of Athenry Where once we watched the small free birds fly Our love was on the wing We had dreams and songs to sing It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry. By a lonely harbor wall, She watched the last star fall As the prison ship sailed out against the sky For she lived to hope and pray For her love in Botany Bay It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry. Low lie the fields of Athenry Where once we watched the small free birds fly Our love was on the wing We had dreams and songs to sing It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
I do, and I agree... I think teams have their songs and other teams shouldn't rip 'em off anyway - it's a shame we don't have one for the Reds...
RE: I do, and I agree... Mobile phone download on official site. Download Barnsley FC ring tones - "Blue Moon"!
errrr.... we did... Brazil.... it's just like......etc errr.. that was Man City's Blue Moon pah now we're rip off artists !!!</p>
I know... But I meant a full length, sort of song. Y'know, like Celtic sing Athenry, West Ham have got Blowing Bubbles, that sort of thing...
