THE SAINT DOMINGO SONG
Now St. Domingo was our name
The founders of the greatest game
When we had our pitch at Stanley Park
In season eighteen eighty one
The toffees history had begun
We beat them all and the football league was won
And they gave us Dixie, Lawton Alex Young and Kay
They gave us Harvey, Howie Kendal, Aland Ball Sharpy and Gray
And most of the football greats
Have passed through Goodisons gates
To play football the School of Science way
Let’s look at nineteen twenty five
We signed the greatest man alive
Dixie Dean he came from Birkenhead
A god like man it has been said
With 60 goals he knocked them dead
You think that’s good half of them were from his head.
In 66 in London town
The toffeemen were two nil down
Harry Catterick had to earn his dough
Then Gabby, Westie and Labone
They fought and brought the cup back home
With Temple one and two from Trebilcock
The 80’s side by far the best
We won the lot, forget the rest
With Tricky Trevor, Brace and Reidy too
We had Psycho Pat , Sharp, Heath and Gray
Big Nev’s ma’s put the spam away
Rotterdam a sea of white and blue
In ninety five we come of age
The Dogs of War took centre stage
Waggy lifts the cup up with the boys
Big Dunc’s no fear he’ll never run
Step aside or you’ll get done
The Peoples Club on the march with Davey Moyes
The FA Cup it’s two-o-nine
nail biting end it’s extra time
You done us proud there’s nothing left to prove
It’s penalties and Tim saves two
Ups steps Jag’s now that’ll do
The blue boys singing We Shall Not be Moved
