Lyrics

[00:01.76]
[00:03.01]
[00:05.04]
[00:23.60] This city's looking like a ghost town
[00:28.64] All the stores downtown they've been closing down
[00:33.62] Yeah, the only lights that shine for miles
[00:36.47] Are lighting up the sky above memorial drive
[00:40.62]
[00:43.19] And if you want a seat you better come on down
[00:48.01] 'Cause when the band fires up that old glory sound
[00:52.93] This is the moment we've all been waiting for
[00:56.05] Lining them up, and the whistle blows
[01:00.08]
[01:00.54] This ain't no game around here
[01:03.52] It's more like religion
[01:05.95] We've built this thing right here
[01:08.24] A football tradition
[01:10.60] So everybody get up
[01:13.33] And feast your eyes
[01:15.31] On the highlight of small town life
[01:18.15] It's Friday night
[01:24.14]
[01:31.46] And winning state would be a miracle
[01:36.54] Man, we did it back in '54
[01:41.48] And if the baptist church prayed Sunday morning
[01:44.40] We might just stand a chance with the help of the Lord
[01:48.60]
[01:49.83] This is ain't no game around here
[01:52.10] It's more like religion
[01:54.42] We've built this thing right here
[01:56.77] A football tradition
[01:59.16] So, everybody get up
[02:01.96] And feast your eyes
[02:03.71] On the highlight of small town life
[02:07.25] It's Friday night
[02:08.86]
[02:15.45] And now the stadium's quiet
[02:18.25] Standing here alone on this old 50 yard line
[02:23.27] If I listen close I can hear battle cries
[02:27.49] Of all the heroes come and gone before I was alive
[02:32.81] The memories of fourth and three
[02:35.11] Now that rival game is coming back to me
[02:37.60] It meant more than a big state ring
[02:39.65] If we could do it again it'd never be the same
[02:42.30] Remember the lights and the butterflies
[02:44.83] Giving it all just one last time
[02:47.12] Because heroes are remembered but dragons never die
[02:51.72]
[02:52.25] This is ain't no game around here
[02:54.98] It's more like religion
[02:57.41] We've built this thing right here
[02:59.89] A football tradition
[03:02.20] So, everybody get up
[03:04.98] And feast your eyes
[03:06.98] On the highlight of small town life
[03:10.27] It's Friday night
[03:12.41]
[03:20.88] Come on
[03:22.07]
[03:24.07]
