Pre game verse. Last one at the end, who will win the day ??
5 yards, 5 yards
5 yards at a time forward
All in the Valley of Death
Ran the Stallions
Forward the O line
Charge for the End Zone, Coach said
Into the Valley of Death
Rode the Stallions
A Pass play called !!
Was there a player dismayed?
Not though the QB knew
Someone had blundered ?
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the Stallions
DE to right of them,
DE to left of them,
Stacked box in front of them
Snortin Smoke and Fartin Fire;
Stormed at by LBs and Blitz,
Still they Ran and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of hell
Ran the Stallions.
Flashed all their determination bare,
Flashed as they turned in air
Blocking the D line there,
Charging a team, while
All the world wondered.
Plunged in the entry Orange and black-smoke
Right through the line they broke;
D line reeled from the Power I stroke
Shattered and sundered
Then they regrouped in the defensive huddle.
Then they regrouped back, but not
Not with as much resolve
Tackles & Guards to right of them,
Tackles & Guards to left of them,
QB and Runners behind them
Both teams Volleyed and thundered;
Stormed at with Flags and whistles,
While horse and hero fell.
They that had fought so well
Came through the jaws of Death,
Back from the mouth of hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of the Noble Chargers and Stallions
