Sideline Statue

Verse 1

Orange

Silver badge

Starched and pressed

Standing still

Near the end zone

I don't move

I don't blink

I am just a stone

While the stadium screams

Chorus

Oskee Wow-Wow

Hail to the orange

Hail to the blue

We're loyal to you Illinois

Loyal to the colors

Loyal to the crew

Loyal to the home team

Post-Chorus

Yeah yeah

Illinois

Go Illini

Go

Verse 2

Wind

Biting hard

October chill

Leaves turn brown

Crowd jumps high

Helmet crack

But my back

Is straight

Like a steel rod

Solid ground

Below my boots

Keeping watch

Cold air

Chorus

Oskee Wow-Wow

Hail to the orange

Hail to the blue

We're loyal to you Illinois

Loyal to the colors

Loyal to the crew

Loyal to the home team

Post-Chorus

Yeah yeah

Illinois

Go Illini

Go

Bridge

Snare drum rolls

Marching feet

Brass is loud

I hear the fight

I feel the fight

I am the fight

Champaign nights

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Oskee Wow-Wow

Hail to the orange

Hail to the blue

We're loyal to you Illinois

Loyal to the colors

Loyal to the crew

Loyal to the home team

Outro

Statue on the line

Watching the clock

Sun goes down

Illinois

Illinois

Illinois
