University of Nebraska Cornhusker Marching Band - Other Fight Songs

Other Fight Songs

• "The Cornhusker" ("Come-a-Runnin' Boys")

Come a runnin' boys

Don't you hear that noise like the thunder in the sky

How it rolls along in a good old song

From the sons of Nebraski.

Now it's coming near with a rising cheer

That will sweep all foes away,

So with all our vim

We are bound to win and we're going to win today.

CHORUS:

For Nebraska and the scarlet

For Nebraska and the cream,

Tho' they go thru many a battle,

Our colors still are seen.

So in contest and in vict'ry

We will wave them for the team,

And 'twill always stir a Cornhusker,

The old scarlet and the cream.

• "Band Song" (set to Rudolf Friml's "Song of the Vagabonds")

Hear the trumpets Playin'

Hear the crowd a sayin'

NU Band is on parade!

Hear the trombones blowin'

Hear the drums a rollin'

NU Band is on Parade!

Sound Out! Sound Out!

Sound out loud and clear

Let the team all know the Band is here.

Sons of Old Nebraska

If someone should ask ya

We're the Scarlet and the Cream!
