Merry Stocksbridge Everybody
(To the tune of "Merry Xmas Everybody")
Are you hanging up your boots in Yorkshire town?
Are the Pennine hills and valleys calling down?
Does the steelworks still shine bright,
Through the frosty winter night,
When the festive cheer is all around the town?
Chorus
So here it is, Merry Stocksbridge!
Everybody's having fun!
Look to the Pennines now,
The new years just begun!
Did you visit Underbank to watch the water flow?
Catch a game at Bracken Moor and cheer the lads, you know!
With the bypass winding near,
And the views we hold so dear,
Stocksbridge spirit always finds a way to grow!
Chorus
So here it is, Merry Stocksbridge!
Everybody's having fun!
Look to the Pennines now,
The new year's just begun!
What will your neighbours say,
When you’re singing out so loud?
And will the Fox Valley lights
Keep glowing through the crowd?
Are you walking through the woods on Langsett's side?
Can you feel the Stocksbridge charm so deep inside?
Through the seasons, rain, or snow,
This is where we always go,
To the heart of Yorkshire’s beauty and its pride
Chorus
So here it is, Merry Stocksbridge!
Everybody's having fun!
Look to the Pennines now,
The new year's just begun!
So here it is, Merry Stocksbridge!
Everybody's feeling bright!
Let’s raise a cheer for us,
On this magical night!
