Every Other Saturday

Every Other Saturday is a song sang at Ibrox Stadium, Windsor Park and Anfield, the homes of Scottish football club Rangers, Northern Irish Club Linfield F.C. and English club Liverpool.

The song was written in the 1960s and originates from an era where Rangers supporters finished work on a Saturday morning, a lot from the River Clyde shipyards, and headed to Ibrox for the afternoon fixture.

The song was later adapted by Liverpool fans and can be heard in the pubs by the ground on matchdays and sometimes in the stadium.

Rangers Lyrics

Every other Saturdays my half day off
And it's off to the match I go
Happily we wander down the Copland Road
Me and ma wee pal Joe
We love to see the lassies with the blue scarfs on
We love to hear the boys all roar
But I don't have to tell you that the best of all we love to see the Rangers score
Me oh me oh me oh oh my oh how we love to see them try
We've won the Scottish league about a thousand times
The League Cups' a simple do
We've gave some exhibitions in the Scottish Cup
We're game for Wembley Wizards too
And when the Rangers win the European Cup
As we done with everyone before
We'll gather down at Ibrox
A hundred thousand strong
And give the boys a Ibrox roar
Me oh me oh me oh my (etc)

Liverpool Lyrics

Every other Saturday's me half day off
And it's off to the match I go
You’ll see me walking down the Anfield Road
Me and me old pal Joe
We love to see the lasses with their red scarves on
We love to hear the Kopites roar
But I don't have to tell you that best of all
We love to see the Liverpool scooooore (scooore)
We've won the English League about a thousand times
UEFA was a simple do
We gave some exhibitions in the FA Cup
We are the Wembley Wizards too
But when we won the European Cup in Rome
Like we should have done years before
We gathered down at Anfield
Boys a hundred thousand strong
To give the boys a welcome hoooome
Kenny ohhh Kenny
I'd walk a million miles for one of your goals oh Kenny
ohhh Kenny...
