Always thought Dirty Old Town by the Pogues would be a great anthem

Cracking song & could be sung just as it is but would be even better if words were changed for us to make it truly ours..what we are as a club & what we've been through. My scratch effort;

 

I met my love at the Baseball Ground

Lost my head in the Popside sound

And that Ram still makes me feel proud

Dirty old town, Dirty old town

 

11 points, save your pity

Still hate Juve for 73

But that Ram still makes me feel proud

Dirty old town, Dirty old town

 

Cloughie's boys in 72

Dave Mackay, Cox & Smith too

They were Rams, just like me & you

Dirty old town, Dirty old town

I did a version on here, several years before Liverpool started singing it................but our lot thought it better to carry on singing EIEIEIO and build a bonfire etc.

Like the earlier Abba suggestion but would prefer Mamma Mia but assume someone else already has it

Derby County, here we go again
Derby, how can I resist you?
Derby County, yes we'll win again
Derby, yes how much I've missed you
Yes, We've been broken-hearted
Rams since the day we started
Derby, I could never let you go
Derby, Derby Derby County. 
 

or whatever. But Derby County does slot in nicely for Mamma Mia

 

Not saying it doesn't fit...but my toes are curling thinking of singing this!

Given our recent history, these lyrics make sense to me (and it’s the most beautiful song ever written)

I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me
God only knows what I'd be without you

Replace "I did it my way" with "We are Derby"

And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friends, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and every highway
But more, much more than this
I did it my way

Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption
I planned each chartered course
Each careful step along the byway
But more, much more than this
I did it my way

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way

I've loved, laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that 
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh no, no, not me
I did it my way

For what is a man, what has he got
If not himself then he has not
To say all the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows, I took the blows
But I did it my way

I'm tempted to say Express Yourself by NDA.

I've always thought that Special Brew by Bad Manners would make a pretty good club song.

I suppose it really needs to be an anthem though. I can't really think of anything more suitable than Stop Crying Your Heart Out.

NWA I think you mean?

Got NDA overload on this forum it sounds like ☺️
