From Shankly to Brendan we follow our team, Rome to Istanbul we've all lived the dream. Our journey is long, our goal stays the same, to keep for our children the famous red name.
Apparently he has got another fifteen verses that even more politically incorrect.

Liverpool duo Jamie Carragher and Steven Gerrard along with former Red Michael Owen have reportedly upset FA chiefs by singing along to Stan Boardman's World Cup song.
Boardman gave a copy of the CD which pokes fun at the Germans to Jamie Carragher when they were having a game of golf out in Portugal recently and it is claimed that Jamie along with close pals Stevie and St Mike performed a rendition on the England team coach following a training session.
Listeners to KOPTALK RADIO will have heard the tune which is the best World Cup tune around without question. One of the lines in the song says "The Germans bombed our chippy" and the English F.A. - who have been trying to play down the rivalry between both countries - are none too pleased.
A source at the FA is quoted as saying: "The FA wants to distance themselves from anything that can be viewed as being anti-German. It was felt best the team steer clear of it even if it did raise a few laughs."
Boardman, who was once on Liverpool's books and is an avid KOPTALK reader, has hit out at the FA.
He said: "It's political correctness going mad. There's even a reference to Sven Goran Eriksson that goes: 'If we win the World Cup again the Queen is going to knight our Sven, he's got a lot of bottle - he's opening a brothel - six doors down from number 10'.
"Apparently all the lads were laughing in the back seats and Sven is looking around saying 'Who is signing that?' He couldn't understand it - you can imagine it can't you."
Boardman also insisted he was right to make reference to the Germans bombing his chip shop during the war.
He added: "The Germans did bomb our chip shop. They also bombed the shelter I was in and killed my brother who was six. The Germans bombed our chippy... it's my catchphrase.
"I only did the single for a bit of fun but's been fantastic - everyone is going crazy for it."
