I'm puttin' together a CD to listen to on the road when I drive up to Lincoln this weekend (and the many weekends to follow). Just a little something to get me pumped on the way up, and especially to wake up to during the early morning drives I might have.
I thought fitting for the first track on this CD would be Nebraska Song by Sawyer Brown. Although dedicated to the memory of Brook Berringer, it was written before his death. Still, I think it shows the passion, dedication and love so many people past and present have for Nebraska football. And I think finally now that a lot of the lost tradition has come back to the school...this song will serve as a great reminder to never lose it again.

Well I came up from Goodland, Kansas
I turned eighteen today
I'm college bound for Lincoln
Nebraska's where I'll stay
It's been my dream all my life
To play football on this field
And if I ever get the chance
I'll make you this deal
I'll work hard I'll do my part
You won't hear me complain
I'll never go down easy
I swear I'll pull my weight
Hey there Mr. Osborne
I'll do anything to play
And it sure would be a honor sir
To call you coach someday
Here in the middle of the middle west
We ain't afraid to fight
Well I've looked to you sir
Now I'll look you in the eye
Well I hear something calling me
Like I've never heard before
It's a red and white freight train
And I wanna get on board
I'll work hard I'll do my part
You won't hear me complain
I'll never go down easy
I swear I'll pull my weight
Hey there Mr. Osborne
I'll do anything to play
And it sure would be a honor sir
To call you coach someday
I came up from Goodland, Kansas
I turned eighteen today
I'm college bound for Lincoln
Nebraska's where I'll stay
