Did a wee edit on it, smashing tune BTW , good tempo fans good learn young and old
Almost heaven, in the South of Glasgow
Ibrox Stadium, Home of Glasgow Rangers
It’s the Greatest, sight I’ve ever seen
It’s home to Scottish Football's, most successful team
Copland Road, take me home
To the place, I belong
Up to Ibrox, to see the Rangers
Take me home, Copland Road
All my memories, gather round me
Andy Goram, Jardine, Greig & Butcher
Gough & Gascoigne, Cooper on the wing,
Baxter, Hateley, Laudrup
Super Ally made us sing
Copland Road, take me home
To the place, I belong
Up to Ibrox, to see the Rangers
Take me home, Copland Road
I hear the roar of 50,000 fans at Ibrox
Cheering on the Rangers as they walk out to play
Rule Brittania, Follow Follow, we’ll be singing, Every other Saturday, Saturday ............
Copland Road, take me home
To the place, I belong
Up to Ibrox,to see the Rangers
Take me home, Copland Road

Wee Steven Gerrard appreciation song
Let me sing you a song of a scouser
Who has lifted, the European Cup.
He's been captain of his Club and Country
Been the Greatest scouser of the lot.
And Now that his playing days are over
He has found a new love of his own
Manager of the greatest club in Scotland
Ibrox Park is the place he calls home
Steven Gerrard the Rangers Fans adore you
We're back on our way to the top
Once again we'd be Champions of Scotland
and lifting the Old Scottish Cup
Sung till thee air of Red River Valley or (Poor Scouser Tommy)
Steven Gerrard, Gerrard
He left merseyside for clyde
He's came here for Number 55
Steve Gerrard Gerrard
Suprized our manager does not have a chant about him as of yet, and he has us playing the best football in years.

I hope so mate, I think it could really catch on and plenty of positive responses on this thread, although I am sure it won't be to everyone's 100% taste. But FF is generally a decent barometer
It would instantly become one of our best songs. Could go on a loop for ages.

Tidied the lyrics (below) and have asked someone to try and lay down a wee recording that could be shared.
It's an easy tune with a decent tempo that a crowd could sing imo
Almost heaven, south of Glasgow
Ibrox Stadium, home of Glasgow Rangers
It’s the Greatest, sight I’ve ever seen
And its home to Scotland's most successful football team
Copland Road, take me home
To the place, I belong
Down to Ibrox, to see the Rangers
Take me home, Copland Road
All my memories, gather round her
Andy Goram, Jardine, Greig & Butcher
Gough & Gascoigne, Cooper on the wing,
Baxter, Hateley, Laudrup
Super Ally made us sing
Copland Road, take me home
To the place, I belong
Down to Ibrox, to see the Rangers
Take me home, Copland Road
I hear the roar of 50,000 fans at Ibrox
Cheering on the Rangers men as they walk out to play
Rule Britannia, Follow Follow, we’ll be singing Every other Saturday, Saturday ........................
Copland Road, take me home
To the place, I belong
Down to Ibrox, to see the Rangers
Take me home, Copland Road
"Sight I've ever seen" is not fitting and you should drop the "And" and "football" from the next line as they're not fitting in either.
And from the Copland Road, you're never going "down" to Ibrox. every route to Ibrox from Copland Road is Up.

What if you live to the north of Ibrox ;-)

Trust me, they both fit, (in my head with the tune anyway)
but the feedback is very much appreciated and can be tweaked with a few differing recordings to get the best version possible...

Trying to make everything fit, so
It's the greatest, sight that I've seen,
It's home to Scotland's, most successful team.........
Super Ally doesn't fit either. Would have to be Ally or Coisty to make that fit.
I can't see how you're fitting these in without trying to fire an extra syllable in to them.

Looks great, a video would be good so hopefully someone can post it into the thread!
I like the we're doing the Bouncy all over the world one.
If you're asking the Copland Road to take you home to Ibrox, you will either be going up the stairs or up the walkway towards the shop. To quote another famous song "The only way is up"

Difficult to get syllable's across in type format, but a recording should help convince you
Again, these are small things, I reckon, and can be tweaked etc, but I am quite heartened by the fact that it is generally quite well received as a concept.....

It is. It's excellent. And what I'm saying is in no way a criticism, just my understanding of the song and how the words would fit.
I still believe you stole the song out of my head though, so I'll have to explore copyright laws etc!

Haha, psychic loyal, will need to get you credited on the album version

I think the Rangers Media Dept (who are very good) should run a competition to come up with a new song. It would be a bit of fun and could get schools etc involved. I'm sure there would be some very interesting entries submitted!

It's surely that time of year for the infamous "Tavernier Baby" to rear it's weird and mental head again !
St Ninians entry would be interesting.

Any musical wizards on here that would fancy helping giving this a go?
Original thread was received quite well, so I thought I would re-visit to see if there was still a consensus this would be a good match day chant?

Is that not the Man utd song?

Thanks, appreciate that.
Anyone know of any singers or anyone who could record, as nobody wants to hear me sing it, trust me!

Might not be what you want but this guy is doing a few requests. It might at least get it out there into people's heads.
Chris Dee, Stephen Dean or Regan Lindsay are all on Facebook.

After seeing some of the great stuff recently recorded by @Bluejodsx ,just wonder if Jody or anyone else would fancy having a bash at bringing this to life, got some unusually good feedback on here for the lyrics anyway!

On the back on the Ibroxonia thread yesterday, any more ideas or feedback on whether we should try and get someone to record this one, which id actually forgotten about?
