years of being told you ain't as good as us join the line, sign your name and they all said that our country's going bust but no-one's fooling us again (chorus) england belong's to me a nation's pride the dirty water on the river no one can take away our memory england belong's to me we'll show the world that the boys are back to stay and you all know what we can do heads held high, fighting all the way, for the red, white, and blue.
Do English people refer to themselves as "The Red, White & Blue"? I know the colors of the UK's flag are those colors. (although the flag of England is white with a red cross on it (St Georges's Cross)) but when I hear the phrase "red white & blue" i think of the USA.
yeah, the british flag is red white and blue, the english flag is red and white. but i guess red white and blue sounded better. and when you hear those three colours you should think of britain considering we had the flag years before them, and the fact we invented their country.
i live in scotland, and playing this song full blast is fucking amazing.
