It's the Ballad of Chairman Shankly - later adapted to also be the Ballad of Chairman Paisley. And it's disappeared - even his widow can't find a copy of it. So if anyone does have it, it'd be great - she'd love to have it. All I know are the first few lines:

 

The East is red

The West is red

The North and South are too

If you come from Leeds or Tottenham

There's nothing you can do

For the blues are paper tigers

And the Southerners are worse

From Pompeii up to Glasgow

They rage and stamp and curse....
