[Intro]
Red shirt riddim
Say it with your chest, not timid (hey!)
Whole crowd singin' that hymn in
You know who we reppin' in the building

[Verse 1]
Came from the Stretford side
Rain on the coach, long ride
Still sang loud through the frostbite
Knew we’d take that long flight, big nights
Banner in the air, that red tide
Name on the back, that's my bloodline
History books? That's our archive
Whole page us, you a footnote, small type

[Chorus]
Red shirt riddim, bang that drum
Say it from your heart, say where you from
We don’t run, we don’t hide
We just sing that song for the red side
Red shirt riddim, stadium roar
Every little kid dreams ‘bout that score
Hand on badge, that’s our pride
You know who we are on the inside (inside)

[Verse 2]
You had your days, that’s old talk
We do comebacks on a cold walk
Extra time, that’s our sweet spot
Last-minute limbs in the away block
Legends on legends on legends again
Stories my granddad would tell in the end
This ain't envy, this is heritage penned
Deep in the city, it’s ink in the skin

[Chorus]
Red shirt riddim, bang that drum
Say it from your heart, say where you from
We don’t run, we don’t hide
We just sing that song for the red side
Red shirt riddim, stadium roar
Every little kid dreams ‘bout that score
Hand on badge, that’s our pride
You know who we are on the inside (inside)

[Bridge]
North side, south side, all stand up (all stand up)
One chant, one love, both hands up
Win, lose, draw, yeah we still turn up
But you know which crest gets first in the club (woah)

[Chorus]
Red shirt riddim, bang that drum
Say it from your heart, say where you from
We don’t run, we don’t hide
We just sing that song for the red side
Red shirt riddim, stadium roar
Every little kid dreams ‘bout that score
Hand on badge, that’s our pride
You know who we are on the inside
