TIGERS WENT DOWN TO GEORGIA

Tigers Went Down to Georgia

VERSE 1

The Tigers went down to Georgia, they were looking for a win to seal,
Vict'ry on their minds and fried razorback rinds, time to be #1, for real.

When they came across the bulldogs, sniffin' butts...a rag-tag lot,
Les Miles laughed as he took the field and said "Boys, lemme tell y'all what:"
"I guess y'all might've noticed I coach WINNERS and a KICK-arse crew,
And if you want, I'll tone down the flaunt, and play like equals with you."

"Now y'all play alright football, son." Said Mark Richt out of cue,
"But screw the SEC, this is you and me, and I coach better than you."

Then Les said "I AM THE MAD HATTER and you can say that shite again,
'cause if you're game, you'll be screamin' my name when LSU takes this win."

CHORUS:

Mathieu get your combat gear and run that football hard,
'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia and it's time to stomp the yard,
And if you're tough and Lee plays some we might just make our goal,
But if we lose, THE BCS TAKES OUR SOUL....

*Fiddle Intermission*

VERSE 2

A striped man took the field and flipped a quarter up, then low,
And Les Miles smiled that crooked grin and said "Let's start this show."

So our boys ran into battle, in a scene you'd never miss,
And the Tiger Fans boomed support to drown out Georgia's hiss.

When half-time came Richt shrieked at Miles: "I thought this was for fun!"
Les said "Man, we're a second-half team. The arse whooping's just begun!"

CHORUS:

And Reid said "Pass the football, run boys, run!"
Claiborne's having too much fun.
Kicker's kicking field goals, (Like 'Bama? NO!)
Running up the score 'cause Georgia is a foe.

VERSE 3

Georgia's looking wimpy, 'cause they know that they've been beat,
And Mark Richt takes his pride and lays it flat at Les Miles' feet.

Les says "Mark, y'all come on back, if you ever wanna play again,
I DONE TOLD YOU ONCE, YOU SON OF A BITCH, WE'RE THE BEST THAT'S EVER BEEN!"

CHORUS:

And the team sang "Gonna be Champs, run boys, run!"
Tonight Baton Rouge is having too much fun!
Kicker's kicking field goals, (Like 'Bama? NO!)
WE'RE GONNA WIN THE WHOLE THING, THOUGH!

I hope this isn't as hard to follow as it looks...just read it to the rhyme scheme of the song!
