CHORUS: SEE THAT LINE A BLOCKING--WATCH THOSE BACKS MOVE OUT HEADING FOR THE GOAL LINE AND A TOUCHDOWN--THERE'S NO DOUBT THEY'RE FAST AS A MIGHTY JET PLANE--SMOOTH AS A BRAND NEW CAR EVERY PLAYER WITH THE HUSKERS IS A FOOTBALL SUPER STAR.
THEY HIT THE FIELD THE HARD WAY WITH LOTS OF BRAINS AND BRASS FOUGHT FOR EVERY YARD THEY MADE--KNOCKED THE SEMINOLES ON THEIR _______! ASK ANYONE WHO KNOWS FOOTBALL--I'M SURE THAT THEY'LL AGREE THE MIGHTY CORNHUSKERS ARE THE ONLY TEAM FOR ME.

CHORUS: SEE THAT LINE A BLOCKING--WATCH THOSE BACKS MOVE OUT HEADING FOR THE GOAL LINE AND A TOUCHDOWN, THERE'S NO DOUBT FAST AS A MIGHTY JET PLANE--SMOOTH AS A BRAND NEW CAR EVERY PLAYER WITH THE HUSKERS IS A FOOTBALL SUPER STAR (SING TWICE) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
