California State – Sacramento Poem

*Cal State Sacramento*

(Set to the Melody of “I Won’t Back Down” by Tom Petty)

Well I—Love Sac-Town.
Yes I—Love Sac-Town.
You can raise town costs and the rates like hell,
I’ll still—Love Sac-Town.

Tree Campus is our ground,
So Forrest—ran to town.
And we keep on runnin’ those Aggies out of town
As we—Stand our Ground.
And they—All Back Down.
(I Love Sac-Towwwwn)
Heyyyyyyyy, Hornets!
Keep all that Green & Gold Out!
(I Love Sac-Towwwwn)
Heyyyyy, I—will rep my town.
Cuz I Love—Sac-Town.

Well our—Teams all fight.
We’re the—Big Sky’s light.
And our ROTC is the best around,
They all—hold it down.
And We—Love Sac-Town.
(I Love Sac-Towwwwn)
Heyyyyyyyy, Hornets!
Keep all that Green & Gold Out!
(I Love Sac-Towwwwn)
Heyyyyy, I—will rep my town.
(I Love Sac-Town)
Cuz I Love—Sac-Town.

And we—love Downtown.
We are—highway bound.
With the K Street Mall and the Kings in town,
Hornets—love this town.
Yes we—Love Sac-Town

<20-Second Bridge Interlude>

……

Heyyyyyyyy, Hornets!
Keep all that Green & Gold Out!
(I Love Sac-Towwwwwn)
Heyyyyy, I—will rep my town.
(I Love Sac-Towwwwn!!)

Heyyyyyyyy, Hornets!
Keep all that Green & Gold Out!
(I Love Sac-Towwwwn)
Heyyyyy, I—will rep my town.
(I Love Sac-Town)
Cuz I Love—Sac-Town.
(I Love Sac-Town)
Yes, I love-Sac-Town.
