I'm going to post the original lyrics to a song, I've been trying to get some "Stoke Lyrics" to fit. Its out there somewhere, but I'm struggling to get it flowing by myself.
The tune is going round and round in my head, but i just can't seem to get the lyrics to gel:
Here's the song :
Sunday, Monday, Happy Days,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Happy Days,
Thursday, Friday, Happy Days,
Saturday, what a day,
Rockin all week with you.
This day is ours
Won't you be mine. (Oh Happy Days)
This day is ours (Oh Happy Days)
Oh please be mine.
Hello sunshine, goodbye rain,
She's wearing my high school ring on her chain.
She's my steady, I'm her man,
I'm gonna love her all I can.
(Chorus)
Gonna cruise her round the town,
Show everybody what I've found
Rock'n'roll with all my friends
Hopin' the music never ends.
These Happy Days are yours and mine (oh Happy Days)
These Happy Days are yours and mine (oh Happy Days)
These Happy Days are yours and mine, Happy Days.
I've been trying to replace the days of the week with players names .....
so
Sunday, Monday, Happy Days,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Happy Days,
Thursday, Friday, Happy Days,
Saturday, what a day,
Rockin all week with you.
might go ...
Gerry and Tommo , Happy Days
Gifton and Ade, Happy Days
Eustace & Halls, Happy Days
Saturday, what a day
Waiting all week for you
then get something to fit the verses, and the next chourus do some other players.
Come on have a beer and help me out.

I spent all yesterday morning with this tune going round my head, I almost had some lyrics written in my head last night, but they didn't sound quite right, and I couldn't be bothered to park up and write them down.
I like the chourus bit, but not convinced the main verse will be a goer.

Tend to agree Dave. Too many words and it won't catch on. Just short sharp tunes are whats required for nogger songs.

 Oh dear oh dear Dave and Joe. Don't think Andrew LLoyd Webber and Tim Rice will be too worried just yet fellas  "Tony Pulis-The Musical" might be a few more years in the making at that rate.

Great idea to try start new songs, but they isnt a hope in hell of this working. If Smudge puts the Ade song on the back page of the Oatcake on Tuesday night and its not sung all game.
There were numerous occassions to sing, espescially after his goal but instead the "Ade, Ade" chant was used instead. Not very imaginative is it!?

if I may wander slightly off-topic...
I heard an old stoke song I'd never heard before t'other day. 'Popped round to see the family and caught my old dear trying to sing her grandson to sleep with the words...
"Send Roy Vernon to Vietnam....hallelujah...." ect etc.
Was this ever sung or is the old dear just going senile?

Padders is right - its bloody difficult to get a new football song off the page and into the Boothen.
However, full marks to Dave for suggesting Happy Days. It'd be totally unique and would sound awsome if the boothen took it up. 5,000 people siging happy days would be summat else!
I'll play around with it and see if I can come up with some words but, as Joes says, we should stick to the chorus and don't try to make it too complicated.

That Peter Thorne song we had about shagging Beckham was great and the Cardiff one which they sing about him (and his magic hat :  sounded absoutely superb when they came to Stoke, and our Ade song would be great. If anyone saw that article about Peter Thorne talking about that song and that he really likes it when they sing it, Ade will defintely love it when we sing our song! |
