"[[Lord of the Dance (hymn)|Lord of the Dance]]" spawned "[[Carefree (chant)|Carefree]]", a chant particularly associated with [[Chelsea F.C.|Chelsea]]. An adaptation is also sung by [[Aberdeen F.C]] fans which starts "Stand free wherever you may be, We are the famous Aberdeen" and by [[Hibernian F.C.]] fans "We are Hibernian F.C., We hate Jam Tarts and we hate Dundee" instead of the original "Dance, then, wherever you may be".<br />There have been various adaptations of "[[When The Saints Go Marching In (sport)|When The Saints Go Marching In]]". Example, [[Buckie Thistle F.C.]] (nicknamed the Jags) fans sing "Oh when the Jags, Go steaming in".
Another version of "Lord of the Dance" was sung by fans of [[Heart of Midlothian]] during their successful Scottish Cup campaign of 1997-98, culminating in their win over [[Rangers F.C.]]. The lyrics were ''"Drink, drink, wherever you may be, We are the drunk and disorderly, We don't give a damn and we don't give a f***, We're coming home with the Scottish Cup !"'' It was also used the tune for the controversial [[Tottenham Hotspur|Tottenham]] song abusing [[Sol Campbell]] after his move to [[Arsenal F.C.|Arsenal]]<ref name="Telegraph">{{cite news |title=Sol Campbells return to White Hart Lane turns spotlight on vitriolic fans |publisher=Daily Telegraph |url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/premierleague/tottenham/4278732/Sol-Campbells-return-to-White-Hart-Lane-turns-spotlight-on-vitriolic-fans-Fooball.html|accessdate=2009-04-03 | location=London | date=2009-01-17}}</ref> and a popular chant sung by [[Manchester United]] fans for [[Park Ji-Sung]]:
