Pay Attention Boy!

Hail to the Redskins - Corrine Griffith

Hail to the Redskins!
Hail Victory!
Braves on the Warpath!
Fight for old D.C.!
Run or pass and score -- we want a lot more!
Beat 'em, Swamp 'em,
Touchdown! -- Let the points soar!
Fight on, fight on 'Til you have won
Sons of Wash-ing-ton. Rah!, Rah!, Rah!

Hail to the Redskins!
Hail Victory!
Braves on the Warpath!
Fight for old D.C.!

The original words were:
Hail to the Redskins!
Hail Victory!
Braves on the Warpath!
Fight for old Dixie!
Run or pass and score -- we want a lot more!
Scalp 'em, swamp 'em -- We will take 'em big score
Read 'em, weep 'em, touchdown - we want heap more
Fight on, Fight on -- 'Till you have won
Sons of Wash-ing-ton. Rah!, Rah!, Rah!

An interesting note is that George Preston Marshall (he was the original owner) wanted the Redskins fightson to be Onward Christian Soldiers.

I know the first half of the song but get lost on the second half as allot of people do. I have been a Skins fan for 30 years and it does not make me any less of a fan. I would think that Betts was probably talking about the whole song and it would be interesting to know how many players (present & past) know the entire song.
