Thanks, StitchInside and bananiem!!

That's Iowa Stubborn from "The Music Man", bananiem.

How about this:

"The Iowa Fight Song"

The word is fight, fight, fight for Iowa
Let every loyal Iowan sing
The word is fight, fight, fight for Iowa
Until the walls and rafters ring. (Go Hawks!)

Come on and cheer, cheer, cheer for Iowa
We're gonna cheer until we hear the final gun
The word is fight, fight, fight for Iowa
Until the game is won.

"On Iowa"

On Iowa proudly at the fore
On Iowa on for evermore
Ev'ry loyal son will give
A Rousing toast to you
Ev'ry loyal daughter loves you true
On Iowa with your wealth untold
A heritage to us you did unfold
Love of family, love of friend
Love of country too
Makes us proud for what you stand
Our Dear Old Gold.

Iowa! Iowa!
Iowa! Iowa!
I-O-W-A!

Fight, Iowa, never, never yield
Fight, Iowa, fight right down the field
Get in the game and watch the ball
Be a fighting Man
Hit 'er hard, give Iowa all you can.
Fight, Iowa, you'll be sure to hold
We're with you with the pep
And love of old.
Fight for family, Fight for friend
Fight for country too
But fight hard today and win
For Dear old Gold.


That will put you in the mood for Saturday!

Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts
Mutilated monkey meat, itty bitty birdy feet
Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts
And me without a spoon

I'm picking out a thermos for you.
Not an ordinary Thermos for you.
But the extra best Thermos that you can buy,
with vinyl and stripes and a cup built right in.

What's in the thermos?

 

[SwedishMeatball]

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she always gone too long anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know

Hey I'll leave the young thing alone
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness everyday

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away

We are the Raiders,
From Orange Park High,
Fighting for victory...
Hold our banner high,
We belong to Orange Park,
So let's all try,
To keep our good name and honor high!

Sad that I remember my school song 21 years later, eh?

 

[Deb in IA]

And of course, there is the FAMOUS "In Heaven There is no Beer" (and quite fitting for this thread)


In Heaven there is no beer
(No beer?!)
That's why we drink it here
And when we're all gone from here
Our friends will be drinking all the beer.

All my songs today will be about sun. If the sun doesn't shine soon I am going to wither away and die. :guilty

NOO!!! Don't wither - dance:

You are my sunshine
my only sunsine
you make me happy
when skys are gray
you'll never know dear
how much I love you
please don't take my sunshine away

 

[bananiem]

Aww, Deb. You're going to make me break out the old HMB standard- Hey, Jude!
Na, na-na nanananaaaa! Na na na naaaaaaaa! Hey, Jude!

 

[cynsaun]

Oh Mr. Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun, please shine down on me!!

Ok, so my oldest loved Barney, and I had to watch it nonstop for 5 years of my life. What's your point?

Don't make me cry today woman. That is mine and my sons favorite song to sing to each other and my love letter in his lunch said............hold on, I have to get a tissue.

 

[Stitch Inside]

What's in the thermos?

Strange brew
killing what's inside of you.
She's witch of trouble in electric blue.
In her own mad mind
she's in love with you
with you.
Now what you gonna do?
Strange brew
killing what's inside of you.
She's some kind of demon dusting in the flue.
If you don't watch out
it'll stick to you
to you.
What kind of fool are you?
Strange brew
killing what's inside of you.
On a boat in the midle of a raging sea
she would make a scene for it
all to be ignored.
And wouldn't you be bored?
Strange brew
killing what's inside of you.

Hey! I taught preschool for 6 years. NOBODY sings Mr. Golden Sun like me.

 

[L107ANGEL]

Aww, Deb. You're going to make me break out the old HMB standard- Hey, Jude!
Na, na-na nanananaaaa! Na na na naaaaaaaa! Hey, Jude!

[sweet angel]

Hey! MUST you constantly steal my wit and wisdom?

I now name you Big Chief Thunder Stealer!

Wait...what?

Did I steal that from you? I thought I got it from a cartoon -- Bugs Bunny maybe? In any event, we can share.....

ETA: Holy crap -- I just looked back and saw that we posted a minute apart. I never saw your post and couldn't figure out why I became Big Chief Thunder Stealer! Duh...sorry about that!



PS: I'm still looking for the man scream video to PM you!

 

[bananiem]

You are my sunshine
my only sunsine
you make me happy
when skys are gray
you'll never know dear
how much I love you
please don't take my sunshine away

Isn't that the song about his true love drowning? Way to bring me down, im.

 

[imsorry]

Good Morning to You!
Good Morning to You!
We're all in our places
with bright shiny faces
Good Morning to You!

 

[SwedishMeatball]

The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar
That tomorrow
There'll be sun!

Just thinkin' about
Tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs,
And the sorrow
'Til there's none!

When I'm stuck a day
That's gray,
And lonely,
I just stick out my chin
And Grin,
And Say,
Oh!

The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
So ya gotta hang on
'Til tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow! Tomorrow!
I love ya Tomorrow!
You're always
A day
A way!

Going back 19 years to Frosh Week 1986 ........

[sung while holding the shoulders of my residence hall girlfriends and doing chorus line high kicks] .....

I was a virgin in my freshman year
I was a virgin with my conscience clear
I never smoked or drank or necked or pecked
I was the campus sweetheart you can bet
And then I met this guy from UNB
That was the end of my virginity
He was so nice so nice so very very nice
I even let him do it twi-i-ice!





(yes, I know this is a family board, but I'm pretty sure the teens around here will not have learned anything new from this song, nor will they be corrupted by the idea of losing one's virginity in COLLEGE - it's hardly a novel one!).
