As others have said, it can be hard picking out the words of City songs. How about those that know them posting them on here?
Maybe even make it a 'sticky' for ongoing use?
Thanks

To be ‘sticky’ you’d have to just edit this first post by adding any actual newer songs.
Same as OLM does with the transfer threads, so your first post is the place to go for bemused chanters.
So far I think you have…

Woke up this morning feeling fine
Thoughts of Hull City on my mind
Rosey's got us playing the way that I know we should
Oh yeah
Something tells me I'm into something good

Fabio Carvalho
Fabio Fantastico
Ole ole
Ole ole

Don’t think it’s been mentioned, but feel free to have

Hey
Hey baby
I wanna know o o o o
Alfie Jones

I remember the West Ham cup game(1973)?,I was 12 at the time and I got took by some of the older lads from Driff.Believe it or not,3 of them were Leeds Utd fans and they had just went along for a scrap!!...One of them was a lad called Kev Nelson(who was dating my big sister at the time) and the other 2 were Bernard and Carson Woodhouse.

Remember Kev very well, lived further up Park Avenue from us and was a year above me at school. Good rugby player as well. Didn’t he join the army?
Didn’t actually know the Woodhouses but knew them by sight and reputation.
Am I right in thinking that your sister went to Bridlington school then?

We had joy we had fun
We had (name of whoever we were playing) on the run
But the joy did not last
As the bastards ran too fast.

I think maybe the problem is lots of modern songs are too **** to turn into chants like that.

No wonder the most recently sung one at City is to a tune from nearly 60’s years ago!!!

Songs with drum machines, synthesisers and auto tuning do not have the same sort of rhythms. And fans in the 1960s and 1970s were a lot more creative in adapting the songs of the time.

Only us oldies remember that song was a Cookies original, written by the great Goffin and King.

They also did the original of another Goffin and King number which was one of my favourite tracks of the Beatles first album.

And the chant that doesn't even scan:
Give us a H (followed by u-l-l C(often extended to cccccc), i-t-y)
put them together and what have you got?
