Can anyone share the lyrics to the chant that goes with the school song? I know it has the words beer in it a bunch of times as well as a Sioux Sucks as well.

I'm not aware of any chant that goes with the school song.

At best, there is a song called "Hail the Bison" that goes something like "Hail the Bison, Hail the Bison, with their tails up in the air. University, University, you can kiss what's under there" to the tune of "Oh my darling Clementine."

I've heard people chanting it at the Turf a long while back after a Bison games. Then I heard it again after the green-gold game as the Kvly guys were talking and it was pretty clear. If anyone has it recorded just listen to the last few minutes of it and you can hear a lot of it. I know part of it goes "and your friends will be drinking all your beers" and it ends just saying "beer, ba-beer, beer" repeated a bunch of times and I know between verses there is a "Sioux Sucks". Just have never known all the lyrics. Maybe it isn't the school song but its a song the band plays frequently.

I think the version sung in the Turf was slightly different but yes that is it. Thanks!

I know a guy that knows all of this "song". He can do it sober or drunk.

This absolutely should be the school song. Officially.

both NDSU and SHSU use this song as an unofficial victory song.

When have you ever heard SHSU sing a victory song???

:confused:

Also, UND's band has sung it at teh hockies. I wouldn't be surprised if a quarter of the school bands in the country sings the song occasionally.

At the Colorado State game there was a pep rally friday night. There were a bunch of us---retired players there. So when they sang this song we sang it like it is supposed to be sung. As we got to the chant we let loose with it. Gene Taylor was up on the stage and had a big grin on his face and everyone clapped. Mike Fairborn came over and told me he loved the way we sang it but they didnt allow it anymore.
That year when we were in Frisco they had all of the old players come down on the field at the pep fest. Terry Hanson had been told that we were NOT to sing the chant and Terry promised we wouldnt. Still pisses me off.:biggrin:

Probably asked this before, but did you have the second verse back then or was that added later?

Elements of the band used "ooooooh sh!t", rather than hooorse, but other than that it was the same.

When I arrived the second verse was already in place.
