Fight Songs

[DemiGS]

I think it would be interesting to hear the various fight songs in the I-AA world. I realize that this probably pertains more to the bands then the football teams, but what the hell….its the off season.

I’ll start with GSU’s
GSU Fight Song (http://students.georgiasouthern.edu/leadership/Track_02f.wav)

Coastal's Fight Song (http://www.coastal.edu/spirit/sounds/CCUFightSong.mp3)

Fight, Fight, you Bearkats!
Fight on through!
We're here in back of you!
You know again we're here to win,
so fight on to the end.

Fight Fight Fight
Loyal we'll ever be and true to SHSU
We'll fight and fight with all our might
for Sam Houston's Orange and White.

I guess last year's fight song thread got wiped out during the conversion. Still haven't got an instrumental version for Albany.

[ISUMatt]

http://www.redbirds.org/fightsong.aif

"Go You Redbirds onto battle! Fight for ISU.
Raise the banner, red and White; to this emblem we'll be true.
So let us cheer the Redbirds on to victory! Every voice proclaim:
'We've got the fight! We've got the might! Let's win this game."

http://www.colgatealumni.org/audiofiles/Fight2.mp3 - Vocal (Colgate 13 and Swinging Gates)

Fight, fight, fight for dear old Colgate!
With heart and hand now we'll win for thee!
Oh, we will fight, fight, fight for Alma Mater,
On to victory we're marching!
Foes shall bend their knee before us,
And pay their homage to pow'r so great,
So let us send out a cheer and banish all fear,
While we are fighting hard for old Colgate.

(it's also been known to change "banish all fear" to "drink all the beer", but only those rowdy kids in college still do that ;) )

[RadMann]

If you want to listen to the UD song, make sure you hit the MP3 link on the site noted by ChickenMan above, not the RealAudio link. The RealAudio recording is really poor and hard on the ears....

Texas State's Bobcats Fight

Clink on the link to hear the music (in Quicktime)

http://www.studentorgs.txstate.edu/bobcatfanatics/Cheers/cheers.html

Go Bobcats all the way
Keep that Maroon and Gold on high.
Fight on for every play
Until you hear that Bobcat Battle Cry.
We're going to cheer for our team today
Until the whole world knows our name.
There's no doubt about it,
We're gonna shout it,
Bobcats will win this game.

(Repeat)

Eat um up,
Eat 'um up,
Go Cats Go!

Eat um up,
Eat 'um up,
Go Cats Go!

Cal Aggie Marching Band-uh!

"Aggie Fight" (MP3 (http://camb.ucdavis.edu/camb/multimedia/sounds/aggie_fight.mp3))
Lift up your voices, now's the time to sing.
This is the day the Victory Bell will ring.
Loyal Aggies, all for one,
Never stopping 'till we've won.
Because the Mustang will show our team the way to fight,
Charging the enemy with all his might.
Let's go. Let's win. Today's the day,
The Aggies will fight! Fight! Fight!

"Big C" (MP3 (http://camb.ucdavis.edu/camb/multimedia/sounds/bigc.mp3))
We are Sons of California,
fighting for the Gold and Blue.
Palms of glory we will win
for Alma Mater true.
Sac State's men will soon be routed,
by our dazzling C.
We'll stomp 'em in the mud,
their green will turn to blood,
in our hour of victory!

"Big C" is a University of California staple, originating from UC Berkeley. You've most likely heard it from UC Berkeley (Cal) and UCLA (their version is called "Sons of Westwood"). Also note that the official abbreviations for the University of California, Davis are "UC Davis" or "UCD," not "UC-Davis" or "UC-D." :)

Owing largely to our past as a football power, the Fordham fight song is one of the most frequently "borrowed" fight songs by colleges throughout the world. I can't find an mp3 on line for the Fordham fight song, but here's a link to the fight song for Ateneo de Zamboanga University of the Phillipines, which is nothing other than the famous "The Fordham Ram" with modified lyrics.

http://aguila.adzu.edu.ph/Downloadables/adzu_songs.php

Hail, men of Fordham, Hail! On to the fray.
Once more our foes assail in strong array.
Once more the old Maroon waves on high!
We'll sing our battle song.
We do or die.

With a Ram, a Ram, a Ram for victory
With a Ram, a Ram, a Ram for loyalty.
To the fight, to fight,
To win our laurels bright!

Hail! men of Fordham, hail! on to the fray!
Once more our foes assail in strong array.
Once more the old Maroon, waves on high
We'll sing our battle song.
We do or die.

[RockyMtnGriz]

Griz fight song

Griz Fight Song (http://media.onlinemontana.com/umgriz/Men_s_Basket/2003_2004_Au/fightsong.wma)

Up with Montana, boys, down with the foe,
Good ol' Grizzlies out for a victory;

We'll shoot our backs 'round the foemen's line;
Hot time is coming now, oh, brother mine.

Up with Montana, boys, down with the foe,
Good old Grizzlies triumph today;

And the squeal of the pig will float on the air;
From the tummy of the Grizzly Bear.

[blur2005]

JMU has one of the best fight songs out there, at any level. So catchy.

http://www.jmusports.com/sdc/fightsong.asp

It doesn't hurt to have one of the best bands in the country. In fact, the band used to be the sole reason a lot of fans came to the games...when we sucked.

[McTailGator]

http://www.mcneesecowboyclub.com/songs.htm


McNeese has two songs. One is "On McNeese" the official fight song, and the other one is the post touchdown song "Jolie Blonde" french for "pretty Blonde" It's really the one that fires up our crowds.

Typically everyone lifts a drink in the air or claps to the beat. Also the whole stadium sways back and forth when it is played.

YEAH...I love that blonde song! When I was there a few years ago, that was my favorite part.

Furman University Fight song (http://www.netheaduniversity.com/sounds/FurmanFightSong.wav)

All hail the white and purple
Floating on high,
Hear the shouts of triumph echo through the sky (Fight, Fight, Fight)
Roll the cheering onward,
Hail full and free
Vic'try be now for Furman University!

[TxState_GO_CATS!]

what a great thread! i'm a member of "The Most Dangerous Band in the South" here at texas state and this is good stuff. very interesting to see how interesting the words are as well. :nod:

[Engineer91]

Rearing, Tearing

Rearing, tearing down the field, down the field
Lehigh's team will never yield, never yield
Past that last white line that marks the goal
And brings a victory again to old Lehigh
And when the big, brown team goes crashing through, crashing through
Rivals won't know what to do, what to do
Rooters cheer another victory for old Lehigh.


Lehigh Will Shine

Lehigh will shine tonight, Lehigh will shine
Lehigh will shine tonight, Lehigh will shine
Lehigh will shine tonight, Lehigh will shine
When the sun goes down and the moon comes up,
Lehigh will shine.


LEHIGH VICTORY SONG

Touchdown, we want a touchdown so we can fight, fight, fight, fight, fight.
We will sing a song of Lehigh, dear old Brown and White, FIGHT!
Touchdown, we want a touchdown so we can celebrate tonight.
Fight, fight, fight together Brown and White, forever
On to victory!


LEHIGH VICTORY MARCH

To the Brown, and the White
Raise a mighty chorus to the sky!
For the spirit true and the will to do
We're proud of you Lehigh!

Down the field, never yield
Varsity to victory.
The Brown and White mean fight, fight, fight
For victory Lehigh.


GOBLET :beerchug:

Get out that old silver goblet
With Lehigh upon it
And we'll open up another keg of beer. (MORE BEER!)
For we all came to college
But we didn't come for knowledge
So we'll raise hell while we're here.

[Go...gate]

I'm a little before Valley Raider's time, but this was a good one, called "Fight for the Team":

Fight for the team
Give a song and a cheer!
Fight for the team
Because victory is near!
Receive, Alma Mater
The deeds which we have done
And we'll fight! fight!
Fight fight! fight!
Until the game is won!
Fight!

[TheValleyRaider]

That song's not so old that I don't know it. The band still uses it after every extra point and field goal. I've never quite been able to match lyrics to music, but we prefer "Fight, Fight, Fight" anyway.

(hmmm, "Fight Fight Fight" and "Fight for the Team". Maybe we should have been a little more creative with song titles)

Now that is a song. That is the best thing I have ever read. I wish someone at Texas State would have came up with it so we could use it. :nod:

[laparka316]

My radio show this past year made it our mission to find the worst fight song in college football.... Even though they left I-AA, there fight song belongs in D3


I give you... Florida International



Download (http://fiualumni.com/downloads/song/FIU_Fight_Song.mp3)

From the green fields of Tamiami
To the north shore of Biscayne Bay
Here's the place where we can gather,
Where Golden Panthers hunt their prey
Anyone who tries to defeat us
Better think twice and stand aside,
Bring them here with their fear to Miami
And when they come we'll show our Panther Pride
Golden Panthers, see the paw,
We will fight, you'll feel the claw!
Let's go Panthers, Gold and Blue,
Fight For FIU!



Made in 2002, they just don't do em like they used to...
