"Yea, Alabama!" (with trio) | Alabama's Primary Fight Song

Details

Description

On January 10th, 2024, we've heard news of Nick Saban, the head coach of the University of Alabama football team, retiring after nearly 17 years in Tuscaloosa. With a record of 206-29, a bowl record of 16-7, six national titles, nine SEC titles, 10 SEC West titles, four Heisman winners, and 47 Consensus All-Americans, Coach Saban is considered in the college football world as one of the greatest college football coaches of all time.

To show my love and to bid farewell to Nick Saban while honoring his accomplishments in Alabama, here is the primary fight song of the Alabama Crimson Tide. This one is special as it includes a rarely sung and played trio, which the band stopped playing after the late 2000s. (I might make different versions including the current version and the version sung by the band, and maybe a touchdown song soon - stay tuned once again!)

Anyways, hope you enjoy the video and Roll Tide!

LYRICS
TRIO:
Let the Sewanee Tiger scratch,
Let the Yellow Jacket sting,
Let the Georgia Bulldog bite,
Alabama still is right!
And whether win or lose we smile,
For that's Bama's fighting style:
You're Dixie's football pride, Crimson Tide!

CHORUS: Yea, Alabama! Drown ’em Tide!
Every ‘Bama man’s behind you, Hit your stride!
Go teach the Bulldogs to behave,
Send the Yellow Jackets to a watery grave!
And if a man starts to weaken, That’s a shame!
For Bama’s pluck and grit have Writ her name in Crimson flame!
Fight on, fight on, fight on men! Remember the Rose Bowl, we’ll win then!
So roll on to victory, Hit your stride,
You’re Dixie’s football pride, Crimson Tide, Roll Tide, Roll Tide!
