3) Fields of Anfield road
Lyrics: Outside the Shankly gates, I heard a Kopite calling
Shankly, they have taken you away, But you left a great 11
Before you went to Heaven, Now it’s glory ’round the fields of Anfield road
All ’round the fields of Anfield road, Where once we watched the King Kenny play (and he could play)
Steve Heighway on the wing, We had dreams and songs to sing, Of the glory ’round the fields of Anfield road
Beside the Hillsborough Flame, I heard a Kopite mourning
Why so many taken on that day?, Justice has never been done
But their memory will carry on, There’ll be glory around the Fields of Anfield Road
The Fields of Anfield road is an adaptation of the The Fields of Atherny song composed by Pete St. John in 1979.

Soon it gained widespread attention from fans and eventually become the prestigious chant among the Kopites.

1)You never walk alone
Lyrics: When you walk through a storm, Hold your head up high
And don’t be afraid of the dark, At the end of a storm
There’s a golden sky, And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind, Walk on through the rain
For your dreams be tossed and blown, Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart, And you’ll never walk alone
You never walk alone is a slogan and on top of it a anthem for the Kopites. You Never Walk Alone is the famous chant sung for the very first time in 1965, FA Cup final.
