Inter Milan Songtext

von Charlie and the Bhoys

We all set out from Glasgow town, from London and from County Down
Cork, New York and Dublin from Boston and Chicago
We all got on the aeroplanes and all Italia's greatest names
Landed up in Portugal to take on Glasgow Celtic
Everything was going to plan, when Glasgow Celtic beat Inter Milan.

It being on the 25th of May, the kids all had a holiday
The sun was shining down and all the windows they were open
Some listened on the radio some watched the famous TV show
Everyone was praying we'd be champions of Europe
We sang throughout the land, when Glasgow Celtic beat Inter Milan.

Celtic went out to attack, but soon got caught out at the back
Up stepped big Mazzola to slot away a penalty
Celtic rallied to the call but Sarti coped well with the ball
And Inter were so fortunate to be one up at half time
They said catch us if you can when Glasgow Celtic beat Inter Milan.

The second half got under way, the Celts put on a great display
Of attacking football that made Inter run for cover
Gemmell brought us level and the cup was surely settled
When a shot from Bobby Murdoch was deflected in by Chalmers
Now the score line read two wan, when Glasgow Celtic beat Inter Milan.

We all went out to celebrate, the bus came down the Gallowgate
Then on to Celtic Park to hail a lorry load of heroes
The European Cup displayed, the Celts they gave a victory wave
And everyone was singing we're the champions of Europe
And Jock Stein is the man, when Glasgow Celtic beat Inter Milan.

When Glasgow Celtic Beat Inter Milan
When Glasgow Celtic Beat Inter Milan
Two Wan! (2-1)
