Glory Glory Man United
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glory Glory Man United is a football chant sung by the fans of the football (soccer) club Manchester United to the tune of The Battle Hymn of the Republic.
[edit] History
The first known use of the tune as a football chant was by Tottenham Hotspur FC supporters in the 1960s, and it remains sung by them still.
However, a club specific version of the chant was taken up the Manchester United F.C. supporters. In recent years, it grew in popularity with Manchester United fans following its inclusion in the single Come on You Reds, released in 1994, performed by the team with Status Quo. Francis Rossi, who helped write the song, is a Tottenham fan.
Several versions for other clubs like Chelsea FC were also written.
[edit] Lyrics
- Glory, glory, Man United,
- Glory, glory, Man United,
- Glory, glory, Man United,
- And the reds go marching on, on, on.
- Just like the Busby Babes in Days gone by
- We'll keep the Red Flags flying high
- You've got to see yourself from far and wide
- You've got to hear the masses sing with pride
- United! Man United!
- We're the boys in Red and we're on our way to Wem-ber-ly
- Wem-ber-ly! Wem-ber-ly!
- We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wem-ber-ly
- Wem-ber-ly! Wem-ber-ly!
- We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wem-ber-ly
- In Seventy-Seven it was Docherty
- Atkinson will make it Eighty-Three
- And everyone will know just who we are
- They'll be singing 'Que Sera Sera'
- United! Man United!
- We're the boys in Red and we're on our way to Wem-ber-ly
- Wem-ber-ly! Wem-ber-ly!
- We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wem-ber-ly
- Wem-ber-ly! Wem-ber-ly!
- We're the famous Man United and we're going to Wem-ber-ly
- Glory Glory Man United
- Glory Glory Man United
- Glory Glory Man United
- As the Reds Go Marching On! On! On! (3x)
