It’s Game Day, Baby

Written by Dale Schumaker

Are you ready!? I said, are you ready!?
Come on! Yo! (Woo!)

The grills are hot, the coolers are packed
Flags flyin' off the old tailgate rack
From the nosebleeds down to the VIP
Every fan's fired up just like me
Burgers flippin', kids playin' catch
Mama's wearin' that throwback patch
We got jerseys, chants, and ribeye flames
It's more than a sport, it's a way of dang life
It’s the game!

It's game day baby, let that whistle blow
Paint your face, wave that flag, let your colors show
We ain't here for quiet, we came to roar
From kickoff lives to the final score
It's four downs, two halves, one shot at fame
Put your helmet on boys, it's more than a game
It's game day baby, get wild and proud
This is football country, And we're gettin' loud!

Hey yo, this song's for you, so let's rock it out like that!

There's a kid in the stands with his grandad's hat
Sayin' one day I'm gonna line up just like that
There's a roar from the crowd, the coin just dropped
We ain't stoppin' till the clock gets stopped
Band on the field, beer in the air
Halftime hits but we ain't goin' anywhere
Got fans throwin' good-natured shade
But we all bleed pigskin at the end of the day

It's game day baby, hear that crowd ignite
Marchin' down the field under them stadium lights
It's a sixty-minute war, guts and pride
You fight for the name stitched on the side
It's goal lines, big hits, legends made
Heroes born every time that play is played
It's game day baby!
Buckle up tight, we're takin' this field!
Like it’s Friday night!

Yeah, from the sandlot dreams to the big-league lives
From high school towns to Super Bowl nights
It's sweat, it's pain, it's blood and you spit
But you give it all just to win by six!

It's game day baby, crank that fight song loud
Shake them bleacher stands, stand proud
It's tailgate glory, tailgate glory and battle cries
With shoulder pads and eagle eyes
It's playbooks, trash talk, destiny made
Legends ain't born, they're made

It's game day baby!
Can't get enough
So, huddle up now and play it rough

Game day! Game day! Lights on, let's play!
Game day! Game day! Game day!
Oh yo! All heart! All day!
