Game Day

Sometimes my Daddy tells me
Before I go to bed
That Iowa can make it
They could just pull ahead!

So I put on my jersey
Each time the Hawkeyes play
In hopes that maybe this one
Will be that special day

Some more people come over
To watch the special game
Today must be important
They’re not acting the same!

What really is so different?
The colors are all wrong!
The cardinal gold and bright red
Just don’t seem to belong


I look at all the people
I know what is today!
The Hawkeys and the Cyclones
Today’s the day they play!
