the irish brigade - johnny thompson song lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
a young lad named john thompson
from the west of fife he came
to play for glasgow celtic
and to build himself a name

on the 5th day of september
against the rangers club he played
from defeat he saved the celtic
ah, but what a price he paid
the ball came out from centre
and john ran out and dived
the ball ran by but john lies still
for his club this hero died

[chorus]
farewell my darling johnny
prince of players we must part
no more we’ll stand and cheer you
on the slopes of celtic park

[verse 2]
i took a trip to parkhead
that dear old paradise
and when the players came out
sure the tears fell from my eyes

for a famous face was missing
from the green and white brigade
and they told me johnny thompson
his last game he has played

[chorus]
farewell my darling johnny
prince of players we must part
no more we’ll stand and cheer you
on the slopes of celtic park
[verse 3]
the fans they are all are silent
as they travel near and far
no more they’ll cheer john thompson
that bright and shining star

so come on glasgow celtic
come out and play the game
for in your goal a spirit stands
johnny thompson is his name

[chorus]
farewell my darling johnny
prince of players we must part
no more we’ll stand and cheer you
on the slopes of celtic park

[chorus]
farewell my darling johnny
prince of players we must part
no more we’ll stand and cheer you
on the slopes of celtic park
