The one I remember from many years back in the old covered in was-:
In your Palace slums
Oh In your palace slums
you look in the dustbin for sommat to eat
you find a dead cat and you fink its a treat
In yuoour palace slums
The name of the team was changed depending who we were playing.

or something...[/quote]
Along similar lines, and the same era, what was the line I can't remember from the Steve Brown chant? Oh Stevie Brown won't let you down Oh, Stevie Brown won't let you down ---------------------------------------- Oh, Stevie Brown won't let you down

Said Bertie Mee to Bill Shankley
''Have you heard of the North Bank Highbury?''
Shanks said ''No I don't think so, but I've heard of the Charlton aggro..''
That was after Charlton took the North Bank in 1967 I think. Even before my time :-)
Give us a C, CCCCCCCCCCCCC Give us an H, HHHHHHHHHHHH Give us an A, AAAAAAAAAAAAAA Give us an R, RRRRRRRRRRRRRR Give us an L, LLLLLLLLLLLLLLL Give us a T, TTTTTTTTTTTTTT Give us an O, OOOOOOOOOOOOO Give us an N, NNNNNNNNNNNNNN
What's that spell? CHARLTON, What's that spell? CHARLTON.
Which led to the famous joke: Q: Who has the worst job in football? A: The bloke who stands behind the goal at Borussia Munchengladbach and says 'Give us a B'.
His name is Eddie Firmani and he's the leader of the team, the greatest team in all the land that you have ever seen. Their name is Charlton FC and they play in white and Red, and when we win the league you will remember what we said. LA LA LAAAAA. LA LA LA LAAAAAA LAAAAAAA..... etc.
I remember singing 'We are Charlton from The Valley' (Toms Diner) at Bristol Rovers we played them at Twerton Park years ago, still love it now.
Unfortunately, two of the poorest songs mentioned I think I can claim as 'composing' in my 'creative' period.
'Kimmy Grant', which is weird as I didn't realise our fans could be so vitriolic about one of players, after Notts County (i think) at The Valley and hated it yet still made the song up as it rhymed.
'Alan Curbishley/personality' speaks for itself but is pretty disrespectful to a legend, nearly rhymes though.
I'm pretty sure that the first time I heard 'oh, score a goal Johnny Robinson, we all love you more than you could know' was when i sung it at Barnsley away, the game before our return.
As the song(s) now are so bad I may come out of retirement. The Addams family is terrible.
The Valley lies down by the ocean
The Valley lies down by the thames
The Valley lies in SE7 so bring back the valley to us, to us
Bring back, bring back
Oh bring back the Valley to us to us
There's only one SE7, one SE7
There's only one SE7
One SE7
There's only one SE7

''Have you heard of the Arsenal highbury?''
