We Are…Marshall

We are…Marshall.
We wear green and worship bison.
Our nickname is “The Thundering Herd.”
We bow to the winter flame.

We wear green and worship bison.
We stand against the Mountaineers.
We bow to the winter flame,
But the summer fountain is pretty.

We stand against the Mountaineers.
We are the southern university.
But the summer fountain is pretty,

We are the southern university.
My northern mother came here.
For the fountain stands as a reminder
Of the best football players, dead.

My northern mother came here.
She inspired my choice for this place.
Of the best football players, dead,
Along with coaches, fans, and others: 75.

She inspired my choice for this place.
Our nickname is “The Thundering Herd.”
Along with coaches, fans, and others: 75,
We are…Marshall.
