The Nebraska Song

Well I came up from Goodland, Kansas

I turned eighteen today

I'm college bound for Lincoln

Nebraska's where I'll stay

It's been my dream all my life

To play football on this field

And if I ever get the chance

I'll make you this deal

I'll work hard I'll do my part

You won't hear me complain

I'll never go down easy

I swear I'll pull my weight

Hey there Mr. Osborne

I'll do anything to play

And it sure would be a honor sir

To call you coach someday

Here in the middle of the middle west

We ain't afraid to fight

Well I've looked to you sir

Now I'll look you in the eye

Well I hear something calling me

Like I've never heard before

It's a red and white freight train

And I wanna get on board

I'll work hard I'll do my part

You won't hear me complain

I'll never go down easy

I swear I'll pull my weight

Hey there Mr. Osborne

I'll do anything to play

And it sure would be a honor sir

To call you coach someday

I came up from Goodland, Kansas

I turned eighteen today

I'm college bound for Lincoln

Nebraska's where I'll stay
