Us. Glen Daly wrote the song first for us. Everton just adopted it and changed the lyrics.

I think wikipedia basicly says it was our song and Everton sang it after us.

Celtic, Glen Daly wrote the song in the early 60s and regularly sang it in the Ashfield in Glasgow.
He also wrote these songs first one mentions Celtic, Rangers, Partick Thistle and stuff
