Then we come down to find we have a cup and maybe more

Since you been here made a change
You’ve made our hopes seem real
It’s hard to find the words to choose
To show just how we feel

When we look back to see where we were with Ash-a-ley
This progress is so great that it takes our breath away
We didn’t dare to hope from where we were before
Thank you thank you thank you yes we thank you evermore
Chorus

Now You’re
The Man


Verse 1
Well our side took pictures of the goals that we knew he would score
When he was first hear over twenty-seven years before
He had to change the shirt a little then of course it looked just fine
We stayed up all night celebrating he was in his prime


Chorus
we can see him now number 9 supreme
pumping in goals like a record machine
Shearer was the man and he could rock ‘n’ roll
now you’re the man can you follow his role
now you’re the man can you follow his role
now you’re the man can you follow his role
now you’re the man can you follow his goals

Verse2


With the air of a daddy heed be stalking them all in time
And as it catches his eye an he starts to turn on the style
And as he bore down always going for the ball on high
Then he would head in a goal with his finger sticking up in the sky


Chorus


Verse3


He’s got a real good job as he watches from up in the sky
And when reviewing our games tells Gary the how’s and the why’s
And with Wrighty on-board he’s telling of the low’s and the high’s
Still a legend with us as a player now it’s all for the fun
Verse 4
He joins in with our joy telling everyone Eddie knows Howe
and with Ashley now gone stands proudly watching over us now
when his memories arise from up and all around
we can remember a time when he was all over this ground


Chorus

St James’s Park


Chorus
There is a very special place we all recall
With instant recognition no doubt at all
In our hearts and in our minds we celebrate this very sound
St James’s Park we truly care our brilliant ground
Verse 1
This hallowed ground within the park set all around
With Leazes Terrace St James’s Street as its surround
As it turns into the park we can see from where that spark
Was to ignite and bring about St James’s Park
Chorus


Verse 2
The time is right and time has come to expand
With funds secured and now we’ve also got the land
The first new build the Gallowgate has got it be in strawberry place
This will be seen and indicate our great new state

Chorus


Verse3
Let’s relocate Leazes Terrace in the park
The tennis courts looks just the place let’s make a start
St James’s Street that in the West let’s move it over that’s the best
Relocate it make it East we’ll pass the test


Verse 4
As this site is vacant now it’s just-in-time
Leazes park road is just a place it’s not a crime
Then we see with no refrain and with no one to complain

St James street would be complete,

it's just the same.


Verse 5
When we see and we reflect on this great shift
We realise St James’s Park has lost its drift
To understand with great delight that Leazes Terrace has no plight
we celebrate a glorious end to this long fight
Chorus

In My Old Van


Chorus repeated 4 times


In my old van we follow the man,
By the name of Eddie and Howe,
Of goes the bus with the whole team in it,
We follow on with a great spirit,
We won’t dilly nor dally, dally or dilly,
We know our way and we know where to go,
Well we all trust our Gaffer even more than Raffa,
Then we all find our way home.

Who’s That Team


Verse 1
When we play home away, it never matters any way,
We’ll make our presence felt and have our say,
Because the gods that make our team, will never ever crush our dream,
And one day of course will lead to Wembley


Chorus


Who’s that team we call United, who’s that team we all adore?
Oh they play in black-and-white and they all know how to fight
we’ll support you evermore


Verse2
The cups that come each year, some say we haven’t got a prayer,
when we look back to see our history,
the 50’s three of four, we all know is narff some score
We pray that day will come for us to see

Chorus


Verse3


With the team that we have now, led by Yassir, Mandy, Howe,
We hope those days return and make us cheer,
Once more to journey south, no doubt our hearts be in our mouth’s
to lift a cup again at Wembley.

Chorus
