lyrics

They’re coming down the High Road
Or on the bus from Walthamstow
They’re coming on their holidays
From Amsterdam and Oslo
They’re coming from the familiar
They’re coming from places that we don’t know
And the gable still ain’t in the middle
And this is still Brisbane Road

One of them’s from Chile
But now he knows Leyton’s his home
Some of ‘em are Irish, some of ‘em are Cyprish
Some of ‘em are home grown
Some want to play for Ingerland
Some want to play elsewhere in the world
And the gable still ain’t in the middle
And this is still Brisbane Road

They’ll make us cry, they’ll make us moan
They’ll soar like eagles, and sink like stones
They’ll make us cheer, they’ll make us groan
And the gable still ain’t in the middle
And this is still Brisbane Road

Laurie looks on from Coronation Gardens
Maybe the best we’ve ever seen
But Laurie knows from beyond the South Stand
It takes all sorts to make a team
Laurie looks on from Coronation Gardens
As here we are and here we are and here we go
And the gable still ain’t in the middle
And this is still Brisbane Road

They’ll make us cry, they’ll make us moan
They’ll soar like eagles, and sink like stones
They’ll make us cheer, they’ll make us groan
And the gable still ain’t in the middle
And this is still Brisbane Road

Some of us are Orient born
Some of us got here another way
Some of us want to live in the flats
Some of us want to move away
Some of us are here every week
And for some of us the final whistle’s blown
And the gable still ain’t in the middle
And this is still Brisbane Road

The gable still ain’t in the middle
And this is still Brisbane Road
