Song : Kenny D the Pride Of Liverpool
Artist: Liverpool FC 1989 with Peter Howitt
Album: This Is Anfield
(Liverpool...Dalglish...)
(Liverpool...Dalglish...)
It's the time you've got to win, 'cos you know you've got it right.
In Seventy-Seven we lost Kevin, but Kenny joined the side.
Kenny's goal made sure we hold the European Cup,
Nobody stop, we're number one!
Easy! Easy!
Chorus:
Wo-ow here we go, nothing gonna stop us now.
We've got the world at our feet, and with Dalglish in the seat,
We'll do it all again somehow. (Liverpool!)
Wo-ow here we go, we never walk alone, it's true.
With Kenny we ought to be, we're very proud to be,
The pride of Liverpool.

| [Kenny Dalglish pada masa jaya sebagai pemain kunci The Reds] |
He was capped more times by the Scottish
side then anyone else has been,
When he played in Red, Paisley said he's the best he'd ever seen.
The League, European, and FA Cup, He's done it all.
With Kenny D it's got to be,
Easy! Easy!
[back to Chorus]
Four years on we're going strong, twice manager of the year,
In the cup they sing "Kenny's King", at Anfield they're sincere.
Guaranteed through tragedy, You'll Never Walk Alone
And you can see with Kenny D,
It's Easy! Easy!

Liverpool,Liverpool )

catatan:
Semasa kecilnya, King Kenny adalah penggemar klub sepak bola Rangers FC. Tetapi ketika seorang pencari bakat dari klub Celtic FC (rival abadi Rangers FC) mendatangi rumah kelaurganya dengan maksud bersilaturahmi dan menanyakan apakah King Kenny kecil berminat mengikuti laga uji coba di kamp latihan Celtic muda, alhasil King Kenny langsung setuju. Dia pun mencopot semua poster, aksesori, dan pernak pernik lain miliknya yang berbau Rangers, untuk memperlihatkan dedikasinya pada Celtic. King Kenny dewasa mendapat ketenaran di Celtic sebelum akhirnya pindah ke Liverpool dan menjadi legenda di sana.
Pencapaian terakhir Kenny Dalglish sebagai pelatih The Reds musim 2011-12 terbilang minim (satu trofi juara League Cup, runner up FA Cup dan satu tiket kualifikasi UEFA Europa League), sama sekali tak sebanding dengan pencapaiannya sebagai pemain. Namun tak bisa dipungkiri bahwa eks pemain The Reds dengan nomor punggung #7 yang kerap dijuluki "King Kenny" ini adalah salah satu pahlawan kebanggaan Liverpool.
Dalam video 100 Players Who Shook The Kop, Dalglish menduduki peringkat pertama melalui voting para fans. Stephen Done dalam video tersebut mendeskripsikan pemain yang ditransfer dari Celtic seharga 440 ribu pounds (kala itu merupakan rekor pembelian Liga Inggris) ini sebagai:
"Probably, possibly, definitely the greatest footballer that played for this club."
Kata-kata itu jelas bukan main-main. Pergerakannya di daerah pertahanan lawan yang membuat bek kalang kabut, naluri mencetak gol tajam serta tembakan yang akurat dengan kedua kakinya sangat ditakuti oleh tim lawan. Yang paling berkesan ialah gol tunggal King Kenny (yang mengemban tugas sebagai pengganti Kevin Keegan yang telah hengkang) pada partai final Piala Champions 1978 ke gawang Club Brugges sukses membantu The Reds membawa pulang trofi agung seantero Eropa di saat itu.
