I A Liverpool FC Supporter

by Ray Smallshaw   Apr 18, 2009


People ask me why I am a Liverpool supporter and I simply reply, If you cut me I shed blood and its color is Liverpool red,
And that red blood will pump around this body until I am bloody dead,

Even though my Father was an Evertonian he was born in Walton Vale,
You see my Uncle Charlie took me to Anfield so that is the beginning of my tale,

I was raised in Liverpool, Speke from were he use to sneak,
Then take me to Liverpool football ground every other week so I could take a peek,

The passion of the Kop and all their ardent fans,
Soon curtailed any Everton affiliation and ended my father's plans

As it didn't take long before Liverpool had won my red filled heart,
Even though at that time Everton was pretty smart,

You see they had won a couple of League titles and were at their very best,
While we dropped a flipping league and were totally depressed,

Yet like a true Liverpool Supporter I never lost heart,
And we bid our time, a new Manager arrived and the Liverpool team did its part,

Now all of that history and we are now trying once more,
To reach those dizzy heights again as we have many times before,

Our team we know will always give us of their very best
While those in charge will help them to pass their waiting test,

So one day soon you will see us once more at the very top,
Until that day I know my heart will go on pumping red and will never, never stop,

As for Chelsea, Man United and all the other teams,
We will drown them out of any ground with the passion of our screams,

You see we do not need money to make a team the best,
As when any player dons a Liverpool shirt he stands above the rest,

And I was born in LIVERPOOL so that is my FOOTBALL TEAM,
They brighten my up my life with thoughts of their future dream,

So no matter whatever happens tomorrow the pride and love I feel is something I will never, never loose
As my heart will is theirs forever and forever, as there the team I choose.
