VERSE ONE

We are everything in football,
That people say is sad and wrong,
But when we go to Edgeley Park,
We will sing our County song,
We will raise our voice in cho-orus
As we did in times before,
And at Edgeley Park the greatest pride,
Is the scarf my father wore

CHORUS

It's forever being beautiful,
And the colour's white and blue,
I wore the scarf around my neck,
At Chester-field and Crewe,
My Father was a County fan,
Like my Grandfather before,
And at Edgeley Park I love to wear,
The scarf my Father wore!

VERSE TWO
We will always follow County,
To all games far and near,
And at Edgeley Park we'll sing those songs,
That my Father loved to hear,
We will raise our pints in mem-ory,
Of the games he loved to seeeee,
And at Edgeley Park I'll always wear,
The scarf he gave to meeeee!

CHORUS

VERSE THREE
It's passed down the gen-erations,
Through my fam-ily,
Oh my Granddad gave it to my Dad,
And my Dad gave it to me,
And when my time is over,
And life's long race is run,
I will take the scarf from 'round my neck,
And I'll pass it to my son!

CHORUS

VERSE FOUR
Aaaaas I walked up those gallows steps,
I looked down at that trap door,
Then he pulled the switch,
He made me twitch, and I knew I was no more,
And as I swung from to and fro,
My body's now a wreck,
But there was no rope that strung me up,
'Twas the scarf around my neck!

CHORUS
