The Boys Of Fall Lyrics

I feel that chill, smell that fresh cut grass
I'm back in my hemlet, cleats and shoulder pads.
Standing in the huddle listening to the call
fans going crazy for the boys of fall.
They didn't let just anybody in that club
it took every ounce of heart and sweat and blood
to get to wear those gameday jerseys down the hall.
The kings of the school man were the boys of fall.

(Chorus)
Well it's turn and face the stars and stripes
it's fighting back them butterflies
it's call it in the air alrighty yes sir we want the ball.
And it's knockin heads an talkin trash
it's slingin mud and dirt and grass
it's I got your number I got your back when your back's against the wall
you mess with one man you got us all
the boys of fall.


In little towns like mine that's all they got,
newspaper clippings fill the coffee shops.
The old men will always think they know it all,
young girls'll dream about the boys of fall.

(Chorus)2X

We're the boys of fall. (The boys of fall)
We're the boys of fall.

i love this song! He's definitely got a football team description down. This always reminds me of my schools football team. The only thing is that i feel like this is something Brad Paisley would write and sing, not Kenny. But it still works :)

It's "Well it's turn and face the Stars and Stripes" I also think it's "Kings of the school, man, WE'RE the Boys of Fall"

Honestly, I love this song, especially with the video. I am in the marching band and us and the football team are brothers in arms at our second year high school. I am going to cry when this season ends.

I love the smell of sports, too. Just picked up my son from practice. Best of luck with marching band. I joined it only to skip it each day and party with the seniors :)

Oh, Idnite, how did I lie? I did pick up my son from practice and I did skip marching band my entire sophomore year (choosing instead to have senior priviledges) while our stupid band instructor never took attendance and gave all A's. You don't sound too happy tonight. Anything I can do?? ;)

I hate country, but, it's where I was raised, and this song... I'm never gonna have those days back

If you've read Daniel Waters' story "Generation Dead", this would apply to the Winford football team. Pete and Stavis probably thought "You mess with one man, you mess with all of us" when they murdered Adam for going to the dark side with the differently biotic kids. How telepathetic.
