The song was written in Billy Greens (Vauxhall) By 1 of the lads in the vault. He was a member of a well known bad at the time. I can't remember which band. Collyhurst till I die

This is just a cobbled together version I did in my kitchen one Sunday morning on a tape. I didn't know all the lyrics so just gave it a go. But hopefully better versions will be recorded in the future. Zephyr White.
