We’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the Red Flag flying high
We’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the Red Flag flying high

36 to 86, nothing changed and it made you sick
Red Ellen led the first [bad word]  her spirit’s with you as you walk back again
Once again see them marching down, different face from the same home town
Given a pound and turned back round again

We’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the Red Flag flying high
We’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the Red Flag flying high

86 like 36, The river’s dead just the ghost of ships
Red Ellen led the first [bad word]  her spirit’s with you as you walk back again
Once again see them marching down, different faces but the same home town
Given a pound and turned back round again

And when we get there, we want the freedom of the city, we want jobs, we want a living, we want work

We’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the Red Flag flying high
We’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the Red Flag flying high

Once again see them marching down, different faces but the same home town
Given a pound and turned back round again

We’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the red, we’ll keep the Red Flag flying high (5 times)
