my uncle recons it goes like this
The Bells are Ringing for the Claret and blue and we are singing for the claret and blue when the ammers are scoring, and the chicken runs roaring, then the money will pour in, for the claret and blue claret and blue no relegation for the claret and blue, just celebration for the claret and blue, and one day were gonna win a little cup or two or three or four or more for west ham and the claret and blue

Not sure if The North Bank didn't adapt/change some of these words. The first few lines are familiar though
ON MOTHER KELLY'S DOORSTEP Words - Geo A Stevens
On Mother Kelly's
doorstep, down Paradise Row, I'd sit along o' Nelly, she'd sit along o' Joe. She's got a little hole in her frock, hole in her shoe, hole in her sock, where her toe peeped through, but Nelly was the smartest down our alley. On Mother Kelly's doorstep, I'm wondering now, if li'l gal Nelly, remembers Joe, her beau, and does she love me like she used to, on Mother Kelly's door step, down Paradise Row. (On Mother Kelly's....)
