5. "Buckeye Battle Cry"

"Buckeye Battle Cry"
In old Ohio there's a team
That's known throughout the land,
Eleven warriors, brave and bold,
Whose fame will ever stand,
And when the ball goes over,
Our cheers will reach the sky, O-
HI-O field will hear again
The Buckeye Battle Cry
Drive! Drive on down the field,
Men of the scarlet and grey,
Don't let them through that line,
We have to win this game today,
C'mon Ohio!
Smash through to victory,
We cheer you as we go,
Our honor defend,
We will fight to the end, for
O - HI - O
