These kid's have a chance of a lifetime to make someting of themselves and they do not have to pay one cent for it. The only thing they have to do is get better at what they do and better than the one in front of them on the depth chart. This song to me put's it all into perspective. It's about how they want to be remembered and what it takes to be remembered not just by who you are but, what you did and your teammates did to help eachother achieve what very few before you did and how to cover each other's back when things aren't going well. That is what makes a person into one that is remembered not for who they are but for what they did to make who they are.

This is the song that is playing through a video that Kenny Chesney sings that tells it like it is. Watch the video all the way through and then you will see someone very familar. I love kid's and this is full of them.

The Boys of Fall Lyrics

When I feel that chill, smell that fresh cut grass/
I'm back in my helmet, cleats and shoulder pads/
Standing in the huddle listening to the call/
Fans going crazy for the boys of fall/
They didn't let just anybody in that club/
Took every ounce of heart and sweat and blood/
To get to wear those game day jerseys down the hall/
Kings of the school man, we're the boys of fall/

(Chorus:)
Well it's turn and face the Stars and Stripes/
It's fighting back them butterflies/
It's call it in the air, alright yes sir we want the ball/
And it's knocking heads and talking trash/
It's slinging mud and dirt and grass/
It's I got your number, I got your back when your back's against the wall/
You mess with one man you got us all/
The boys of fall/

In little towns like mine that's all they got/
Newspaper clippings fill the coffee shops/
The old men will always think they know it all/
Young girls will dream about the boys of fall/

(Chorus:)
Well it's turn and face the Stars and Stripes/
It's fighting back them butterflies/
It's call it in the air, alright yes sir we want the ball/
And it's knocking heads and talking trash/
It's slinging mud and dirt and grass/
It's I got your number, I got your back when your back's against the wall/
You mess with one man you got us all/
The boys of fall/

(Chorus:)
Well it's turn and face the Stars and Stripes/
It's fighting back them butterflies/
It's call it in the air, alright yes sir we want the ball/
And it's knocking heads and talking trash/
It's slinging mud and dirt and grass/
It's I got your number, I got your back when your back's against the wall/
You mess with one man you got us all/
The boys of fall/

We're the boys of fall

We're the boys of fall

FWIW, this song will be fricking sickening by noon on Sept. 18 with all the tailgates playing it.

FWIW, this song is horrible and we will have to listen to it 45,000,000 times during the football season. And I actually don't mind Kenny Chesney

Maybe yall don't think about what it was like when you where a kid in High School wanting to play proball that is why I like this video and song. I see myself in it and I think about what is going on at LSU right now. How these kids grew up wanting to be someone special. Well they chose to come here to LSU to live out their dreams. I hope their dreams end in Arizona this year as BCS Champions.

This song is pure cheese. Lyrics must have been written by a second grader.

The only thing chesney inspires me to do is evacuate my bowels.

The song is totally gay as Liberace. What's even gayer is the douche WYNK mix.
