This One Belongs To The Reds



Remember the days of sweet Lou Piniella,
Even when he threw bases he was still a good fellow,
Cause we led wire to wire and we swept the world series,
We beat Mark McGwire, it brought me to tears,
When I watched the foul ball fly down the first base line,
It was one of those moments just frozen in time,
With Benzinger backing and making the play,
Remember the joy when we heard Marty say: "This One Belongs To The Reds!"

So with Griffey and Dunn and Bob Castellini,
We'll bring back the days of the Big Red Machine,
When Morgan and Bench ruled the Queen City,
And other teams knew the games would not be pretty,
If everyone's healthy and we get some pitching,
We'll conquer the Cards and win the division,
With Narron and Bronson and brand new heroes,
We'll bring back the legend of Mr. Pete Rose, This One Belongs To The Reds,

Remember the game that was pitched by Tom Browning,
How Fountain Square sang after his perfect outing,
I was standing and cheering, tell me where were you,
When Pete Rose hit number 4192,
From Seaver to Rijo, from Foster to Larkin,
The Reds of the past will not be forgotten,
So play with the pride that these heroes displayed,
Give Marty a reason to constantly say: "This One Belongs To The Reds!"

We Are Marshall



On a cold November night,
On a West Virginia hill,
Laid the pieces of a flight,
That we remember still,
We cried for those we lost,
Said a prayer for those who'd gone,
But we knew that in their memory,
They'd want us to move on,

We Are Marshall, we are proud,
When we all unite for the green and white,
Say it clear and say it loud,
We Are Marshall, we are strong,
When we all resound with a thundering sound,
Their spirit still lives on, We Are Marshall,

From ashes to glory,
We made up our mind,
To rebuild the program,
That was left behind,
Some said we should quit,
It could not be done,
We've proven them wrong,
With the games we have won,

Let's raise our voices up to Heaven,
So they can hear us say the words,
We Are Marshall, we are driven,
To overcome the loudest thunder ever heard ...
