I still get shivers when I think of the crowd singing
"On the one road" at the WC Quarter Final against Italy in 1990.
I watched in on TV and had never seem anything like it. It seems like the whle stadium was singing.
Chorus:
We're on the one road, sharing the one load
We're on the road to God knows where
We're on the one Road, it may be the wrong road
But we're together now who cares
Northman, Southmen, comrades all,
Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Donegal
We're on the one road, swinging along
Singing an Irish song.
Though we've had our troubles now and then
Now is the time to make them up again
Sure aren't we all Irish anyhow
Now is the time to step together now.
(Chorus)
Tinker, tailor, every watchers son
Butcher, bakers shoulder by his son
Rich man, poor man, every man in line
All together just like Auld Lang Syne.
(Chorus)
Night is darkness just before the down
From this entrance Ireland is reborn
Soon we'll all unite as Irishmen
Pronounce this land our Nation once again.
(Chorus)
We're on the one road, mabey the wrong road
but we're together now who cares.
Northmen, Southmen comrades all,
Belfast, Dublin, Cork and Donegal
we're on the one road, marching along
singing a soldier's song.
Yeah its a classic although most guys go quiet on the second verse :)

I always believed that it was already linked with Keane?Quote:

are 2 lines from the song but are Brain Clough quotes, the manager who took Keane to Notts Forest. I remember seeing them lay live and say the song was for Keane and Clough.
Good list of songs, but I've one suggestion
When singing the fields of Athenry, include the first verse
For anyone who doesn't know
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
Michael they have taken you away
For you stole trevelyan's corn
So the young might see them morn
Now the prison ship lies waiting in the bay
Can everyone please make sure they follow these simple steps so that their voice is properly warmed up before they start singing ;)

below is my salts worth at adapting the chorus of the pogues sally maclennane
the real sally:
We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we'd be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey 'cause I'm going far away (far away)
I'd like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane
the irish paris version:
We love to see the duffer on the wing
We idolise the duffer pull the strings
And we sang him a song of times long gone
oh we’ll crown him our own irish king
bonjour bonjour, green army are on tour
So buy me wine and whiskey and some strong liquor (morning cure)
Ten thousand paddys on the banks of the seine
To the greatest irish party paris'll never see again
Bom bom bom aye aye
Bom bom bom aye aye
Sink or swim, sink or swim
one thing is certain we'll never give in
hand in hand, side by side
we'll all stand together
IRELAND IRELAND IRELAND........
The Frogs Chorus....how appropriate is that. (Second time this year Paul McCartney will hear himself in stade de france)
Weird. I was going to post this yesterday having heard it on Ryan Tubridy :eek:Quote:
