Willie Maley was his name He brought some great names to the game When he was the boss at Celtic Park He taught them how to play football He made the greatest of them all Gallacher and Quinn have left their mark (Chorus) And they gave us James McGrory and Paul McStay They gave us Johnstone, Tully, Murdoch, Auld and Hay And most of the football greats Have past through Parkheads gates For to play football the Glasgow Celtic way In 38 there was a show Glasgow was the place to go A model of the tower was footballs prize England sent 4 of the best They didn't meet with much success Cause the trophy ended up in paradise Chorus Coronation time was here 53 that was the year Another 4 from England met there doom They said we'll have to try again
But like before it was in vain Because the cup is in the Parkhead trophy room Chorus And then in 1957 we faced a guy called Gorgie Nevin The game is etched on every Celtic fan Wilson, Mochan and Mc Phail And Willie Fernie scored as well As Celtic beat the Rangers 7-1 Chorus So 10 years they had gone and so To Portugal we had to go, to play the team that Italy Adore Celtic went out to attack They won the big cup and they brought it back It's the first time it had been on British shores Chorus And now a new Millennium we have a brand new stadium We're amongst the honours once again The Celtic fans did proudly sing Larsson is the King of Kings And he joins the list of famous Celtic men! Chorus 'til whenever!
