Griz School Song

Post by BobCatFan » Fri Aug 06, 2004 11:08 pm

This song is a few years old, but it shows how low class the griz are.

The link to the song is on the low left of the web page.

Don't see that link. Who's web page is the link on? Like to hear it.

Is the mystery song as high class as the "eat $hit Grizzlies Go cats Go song I heard last year?

Comparatively speaking... what's up with the squealing pig? I could see if MSU were the razorbacks, but come on. I thought they were the liberal arts school. Aren't they supposed to be more creative?

Up With Montana

Up with Montana, boys, down with the foe,
Old Montana's out for a victory;
She'll shoot her backs around the foe-men's line;
A hot time is coming now, oh, brother mine.

Up with Montana, boys, down with the foe.
Good old Grizzly'll triumph today;
and the squeal of the pig will float on the air;
from the tummy of the Grizzly bear.


Here is ours:

Stand Up And Cheer (MSU Fight Song)

Stand up and cheer,
Cheer long and loud for dear Montana
For today we raise
The blue and gold to wave victorious
Our sturdy band now is fighting
And we are sure to win the fray
We've got the vim, We're here to win
For this is dear Montana's Day!

I'll take the UM lyrics any day... we get sturdy bands with vim, they get to eat delicious pigs and this line about the "hot time" that is coming sure sounds interesting.

Years ago I was told the words to the Cat song were written by the band director, so it figures "The sturdy BAND now is fighting".

Many college "fight songs" contain words and references long ago abandoned. "Vim" is certainly one. It losely translates to "boundless energy" if that's any help. Today we'd probably use something stupid like, "cool" which applies to almost anything.

It's good to see the MSU song cheers for MONTANA. I agree with MSU01, I'll take UM's song also.
