Gordon Banks - England’s number one

Pele screamed “Gol”
Alberto and Jairzinho tricky
Banks saves heart and soul
Modestly terming it “lucky”

Brilliance from the World Cup winner
In the heat of Guadalajara
Chesterfield, Leicester, Stoke, FIFA
Named six times keeper of the year

Once the Kop lauded merrily 
"Nice work, Gordon," sang the ranks 
Lap of honour with Bill Shankly
You’ll never walk alone Gordon Banks
