75% of the LSU fanbase thinks it's the fight song.

Well it isn't the fight song...soooo...

I'd say 10% of LSU's fanbase actually knows the words to Fight for LSU

I tried to teach the group of friends I go with to the game the words so maybe things would multiply and at least the student section would start singing (obviously a far fetched plan). Didn't work out and I looked goofy singing the words by myself while nobody else had any idea what song I was singing.

I knew that Fight for LSU is the fight song but I do not know the words. I bet you are looking at maybe 2% who can sing it.

iv been to many road games and its embarrasing to hear people trying to sing the alma matter

if it werent for the words on the screen at home games i assume it would be just as bad

Like Knights of Old,
We will uphold
The glory of the Purple Gold
We'll struggle through,
We'll die or do
And win the game for dear ole LSU
We're vying for
The higher score,
Come on the fans they want some more
SOME MORE
Come on you tigers, fight, fight, fight for dear old LSU!

It may be off a word or two, but I sing it every game...Im in the 2-5%

I found the full version on Wikipedia.

Like Knights of old, Let's fight to hold
The glory of the Purple Gold.
Let's carry through, Let's die or do
To win the game for dear old LSU.
Keep trying for that high score;
Come on and fight,
We want some more, some more.
Come on you Tigers, Fight! Fight! Fight!
for dear old L-S-U.

(Repeat Verse)

We are the strongest,
We are the bravest
Football team in history.
Here's to the honor, Here's to the glory
Marching on to victory.
Cheer for the Tigers! Cheer for the Tigers!
Tigers! Fight! Fight! Fight!

(Repeat Original Verse)

ETA: I actually sing almost all of the song, I just didn't know all of the "fast" part.

Louisiana State University Tiger Marching Band
