Cover of Gerry and the Pacemakers' 1964 song as a charity single in aid of the families of the ninety-five victims of the Hillsborough disaster, all of which were supporters of Liverpool Football Club. It topped the UK singles chart one month after the incident.
Life goes on day after day
Hearts torn in every way
So ferry 'cross the Mersey
Cause this land's the place I love
And here I'll stay
People they rush everywhere
Each with their own secret care
So ferry 'cross the Mersey
And always take me there
The place I love
People around every corner
They seem to smile and say
We don't care what your name is boy
We'll never turn you away
So I'll continue to say
Here I always will stay
So ferry 'cross the Mersey
Cause this land's the place I love
And here I'll stay
And here I'll stay
Here I'll stay
Ferry Cross the Mersey was written by Gerry Marsden.
