The Tech Series of May 2003
Sung to the tune of "The Battle of
New Orleans"
Lyrics by Terry Goodwin
| In May 2003 we took a little
trip, Up-to Atlanta Georgia, Up the Interstate a bit. We brought ourselves a grill and we bought ourselves some beer, We found the Yellow Jackets and their stadium was near. |
 |
Chorus:
The `Noles swung their bats and they just started scorin'.
The Jackets couldn't pitch and their coach began to cry.
The `Noles scored some more and Tech was-a trailin',
Hangin' their heads 'cause they knew they 'd never win.
`Noles stared down their batters,
And the Jackets couldn't hit.
There wasn't much they could do save sulk their yellow heads and sit.
Heard so much about 'em, thought we'd feel a sting,
But this is Georgia Tech so ain't no way we'll feel a thing!(Chorus)
"Eleven" looked up, grinnin' from ear to ear,
'Cause the `Noles had played all out, another series win this year.
We cheered and yelled and got all over Watchko,
Then we ragged on that big guy who ate the yellow submarine!
(Chorus)
Chorus 2:
Tech ran out of that ballpark,
Not stoppin' for a second,
'Cause the `Noles were on their heels makin' sure they didn't slow.
They ran so far and made it to Savannah,
They ain't Yellow Jackets, Yellow Chickens don't ya know?
The `Noles hit home-runs and they pitched the ball so well,
At the end of day three another `Nole victory was ours.
The Garnet and Gold in the stands cheered in celebration,
We knew Eleven was thrilled as he gave us a NOLES Cheer!
(Chorus)
(Chorus 2)
