YouTube link Rather derivative tune, I'm afraid. But clever lyrics. |

That was neat, John. Thanks for finding and posting it. I found it ironic that they used Johnny Horton's "The Battle of New Orleans" tune and cadence for a British 'victory' song. YouTube link Jim |

The music is an old American folk tune called the Eighth of January. Johnny Horton had Billboard's top hit of 1959 singing it with Jimmy Driftwood's lyrics. Rick |

Loved it. Would also make a good terrace chant for an FA club. |
