(cick on link above to listen)
Onward Bulldogs, into the fight.
We will back you
with all our might
fearless, peerless, hear us yell loud
you're just the
kind of team to set off a crowd
Onward Bulldogs, into the game.
you will win and
you'll bring us fame
Fame and honor in every way,
you'll be the heros of
the day.
