Derek Warfield - The Flag That Flies on High lyrics
In Glasgow, back in '88 poor children needed fed and some big-hearted Irish men who lived around Parkhead decided in their charity to silence hunger's cry, so they started Celtic Football Club and raised the flag on high and they raised the flag on high x2 (they started Celtic football club) and raised the flag on high Then bigots who did hate their race and most of all their creed used their power to hinder them in spite of childrens need but Celtic's spirit - then as now despite each pressman's lie they rose above all obstacles and kept their flag on high They kept their flag on high and they kept their flag on high they rose above all obstacles and kept their flag on high They carried on from strength to strength from fame to greater fame now all who've heard of football know the Glasgow Celtic name But still the same old bigotry will let no chance go by to blacken this great football name and the flag that flies on high To blacken this great football name and the flag that flies on high x2 When in 1953 the ruling SFA they said that Celtic football club must take their flag away But Kelly and his Celtic men said they would rather die than to disgrace their forefathers and the flag that flies on high and the flag that flies on high x2 than to disgrace their forefathers and the flag that flies on high And still the Irish tricolour it waves o'er Paradise where proudly it's admired and loved by Irish exile's eyes God grant the like Bob Kelly all attacks we will defy from the enemies of Celtic and the flag that flies on high and the flag that flies on high x2 from the enemies of Celtic and the flag that flies on high In Glasgow, back in '88 poor children needed fed and some big-hearted Irish men who lived around Parkhead decided in their charity to silence hunger's cry, so they started Celtic Football Club and raised the flag on high and they raised the flag on high x2 (they started Celtic football club) and raised the flag on high and they raised the flag on high x2 (they started Celtic football club) and raised the flag on high |
