WE'RE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE

[m0e]

WE'RE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE

 

to the tune of the Gambler (Kenny Rodgers)

 

 

ON A WARM SUMMER'S EVENING

ON A TRAIN BOUND FOR LIMESTREET

RICK MET UP WITH A SPANIARD

SENOR RAFA BENITEZ

 

AND THEY TOOK TURNS AT SHARING

THEIR MEMORIES OF THE REDMEN

FROM SHANKLY THROUGH TO KENNY

BOB PAISLEY AND FAGAN

 

HE SAID "RICK I'VE MADE A LIFE

OUT OF WINNING CUPS AND TROPHIES

AND KNOWING ABOUT THE SECRETS

OF THE MOST SUCCEFFUL SIDES

SO IF YOU DON'T MIND ME SAYING

THE SQUAD IT NEEDS NEW FACES

FOR A TEST OF YOUR PATIENCE

I'LL GET THE TEAM JUST RIGHT"

 

SO RICK TOLD HIM ABOUT OUR PROBLEMS

AND HOW THE FANS GREW RESTLESS

HOW MANY YEARS HAD GONE BY

WITHOUT THE RIGHT SUCCESS

 

RAFA STOPPED HIM IN HIS TRACKS

AND HE ASKED RICK TO SIT TIGHT

SAID "IF YOU'RE GONNA BEAT THE BIG BOYS

YOU GOTTA LEARN TO PLAY THEM RIGHT"

 

WE NEED MOMO SISSOKO - XABI ALONSO

LUIS AND HARRY KEWELL- AND STEVIE G

WITH A DEFENCE THATS SOLID - AND CROUCHY THE HOLDER-UPPER

AND WITH FOWLER SMASHING GOALS IN - WE'RE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE

 

"EVERY KOPITE KNOWS

THAT THE KEY TO WINNING TROPHIES

IS KNOWING WHICH STARS TO KEEP

AND KNOWING WHO TO BUY

COS EVERY TEAM'S A WINNER

AND EVERY TEAM'S A LOSER

AND AS LONG AS WE'RE NOT EVERTON

WE CAN REACH FOR THE SKY"

 

AND WHEN HE FINISHED SPEAKING

WELL, RICK HE STARTED DREAMING

OF ALL THE TROPHIES WE WOULD WIN

WE'LL RULE IN EUROPE ONCE AGAIN

 

A LIGHT SHONE FROM THE DARKNESS

RICK FOUND US THE SOLUTION

THE MAN WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR

VIVA LA RAFALUTION

 

WE NEED MOMO SISSOKO - XABI ALONSO

LUIS AND HARRY KEWELL- AND STEVIE G

WITH A DEFENCE THATS SOLID - AND CROUCHY THE HOLDER-UPPER

AND WITH FOWLER SMASHING GOALS IN - WE'RE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE

 

WE NEED MOMO SISSOKO - XABI ALONSO

LUIS AND HARRY KEWELL- AND STEVIE G

WITH A DEFENCE THATS SOLID - AND CROUCHY THE HOLDER-UPPER

AND FOWLER SMASHING GOALS IN - WE'LL WIN THE CAHMPION'S LEAGUE

Kenny Rogers is a legend - and he has looked the same for the last 30 years!

[Count Morfeo]

Ahh, that other man in black.

[Thants]

(Kenny Rodgers)

 

 

Does he?? Well thats killed the image of my hero.

:sniff:

[Red Nick]

I thought it was a Johnny Cash song.

 

Frankie Laine

 

but it has been sung by many Country and Rock Pop Artists.

 

Its like YNWA has been sung by Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Judy Garland and more before it was sung by Gerry. FTR the song comes from the musical Carousel.

[Dirk]

I thought 'The Gambler' was by Madonna? :dunno:

 

I thought it was Wayne Rooney, meself.
