[Jorge Rivera-Herrans, Teagan Earley - The Fighting Irish lyrics]
Underdogs of every race
Woah, we are the Fighting Irish
Of Notre Dame
It all started as a slur
They used a mean term to deter
Any dreamers with three words:
"Need not apply"
But without a hint of fear in our eyes
We rise to persevere and survive battle cry
And through the generations
Our rage is a stance against opprobrium
We’re standing on a podium
Think we’re going easy on you? Ha! I wish
But now you’re messing with
The Fighting Irish
Bold soul, cuz golden’s our fame
Wake up the echoes cheering Her name
Who’s got the gold dome?
Who’s got the great faith?
It’s got to be Notre Dame
You can draw lines and build the barricades
You can dismiss and diss our accolades
But we won’t stop for any reason, no season
We goin’ play like a champion today
Shake down the thunder
Leave ‘em in awe and wonder
Show ‘em we’ll never fall
Though the odds be great or small
We’ll brave it all
Shake down the thunder
Leave ‘em in awe and wonder
Show ‘em we’ll never fall
Though the odds be great or small
Every color, every face
Underdogs of every race
Woah, we are the Fighting Irish
A force for good, of hope and faith
Strong of heart and one in name
Woah, we are the Fighting Irish
Of Notre Dame, y’all
What makes us the same is the uphill battle
Riding forward like the
Four horseman’s saddles
When life tries to rattle us we
Keep our feet on the gravel
Cuz there is nothing God can’t handle
Here’s an example
When I’m still in the the Basilica
Spilling my heart’s rhymes
And tryna to keep it real
But I’m dealing with hard times
Think of the harsh signs that said
"No Irish"
And how our ancestors replied with:
We’ve come way to far for us to turn back now
We got a whole lot to fight for
We can’t back down so we proceed warily
We do it for posterity
Even though it’s harrowing
We will roll merrily yeah
And the day will come
Where Notre Dame’s name brings the
World together as one
Forever we run with confidence
We’re holding a spot
Whether you like it or not
Call us whatever you want
And hey while I’m at it
Let me give my props to
The men with the schematic
Cuz I’m Sorin like the Father
Rowin’ like Moreau
Got the Holy Cross rockin' the show
Shake down the thunder
Leave ‘em in awe and wonder
Show ‘em we’ll never fall
Though the odds be great or small
We’ll brave it all
Shake down the thunder
Leave ‘em in awe and wonder
Show ‘em we’ll never fall
Though the odds be great or small
Every color, every face
Underdogs of every race
Woah, we are the Fighting Irish
A force for good, of hope and faith
Strong of heart and one in name
Woah, we are the Fighting Irish
Of Notre Dame, y’all
We are the Fighting Irish
Of Notre Dame, y’all
We are the Fighting Irish
