Down the field

[OrangeAllDay]

Why don't we sing down the field?? Did we ever sing it?? If not why does it have lyrics??? Is their any significant history that someone knows about the song?? Just curious thought volnation would be a good resource

 

[Boca Vol]

Because we "borrowed" it from Yale?

Rocky Top has taken over as the "unofficial" fight song

It was the most downloaded on Verizon a few years back.

Whenever I hear it I immediately think of Neyland Stadium.

I like the other fight song much better. No, not talking about Rocky Top. The other one that I can't recall the name to. It has much more spirit and pizzazz imo.

Then sing it when it's played after every score?

Yeah, that's it. I just played it on utube. That's my favorite as an alternate to Rocky Top. Of course, the band plays it, but I wish they played it more often.

Down the field is awesome. Most probably arent aware it has words.

It's never the same, but it's something like:

We just scored on your team
Your team sucks big time
And we scored
And you suck
Did you see that score?
And we just scored
And you suck so much
Your team sucks biiiig dick
We just scored and your team sucks
And we
Just
Scored

I know song goes back to the mid 1930's. I Have a hand written copy of it that was my dad's, who was Band Captain back then.

The Tennessee Waltz is traditional, it's the state song. :yes:

At two or three games this year, after we won, as the band was playing The Tennessee Waltz, the TV know everythings said "they are playing and team standing for the alma mater. I can understand saying it once, but surely someone on their staff would have corrected them before the next game. Which I think it was.

Meh....it's no 3rd down for what

 

[1973Vol]

Great fight song... remembered it as being THE song for UT back in the 60's.

Go Vols!
