True Blue



I was at the Alabama game in 1997,
When the goalposts came down, I was in Big Blue Heaven,
Tim Couch to Craig Yeast for the winning touchdown score,
Kicked off a celebration like I've never seen before,
But I recall the Peach Bowl in 1993,
When Pookie Jones almost led the Cats to victory,
If only we had held on to that intercepted throw,
Clemson would have never scored with seconds left to go,

True Blue, I still love the Wildcats,
True Blue, I still believe,
True Blue, I've been there through the heartbreak,
And I'll be there when we win the SEC,

I made the trip to Papa John's in 1998,
To watch the Air Raid crush the Cards and watch them dominate,
In a record setting year when we finally reached our goal,
To play on New Year's Day in the Outback Bowl,
But I recall a bitter loss that was awfully tough,
When 7 interceptions weren't quite enough,
Cause Florida's Doering caught the ball on the final play,
To give the game to Spurrier and take our win away,

I remember our success in 1984,
With a Hall of Fame Bowl win by a 20-19 score,
We beat Wisconsin there to cap off a 9 win year,
Back when Jerry Claiborne and Bill Ransdell were here,
I was at Commonwealth in 2002,
When we thought Lorenzen had beaten LSU,
There stood Guy Morris doused in Gatorade,
Looking at the craziest Hail Mary ever made,

I endured a game that lasted half the night,
When we battled Arkansas in an epic fight,
I recall the devastation after 7 overtimes,
When we came up inches short at the goal line,
I've stayed here all the times that our program has been down,
And I've watched Rich Brooks turn this thing around,
Cause I still believe and I can't wait to see,
The Big Blue in the BCS, how sweet it's going to be ...
