Lyrics
From the sound of the whistle
To the running of the clock
The game is fast full of rage
You gotta take your knocks
Time to rock, time to go
Here to win, time to roll
Now's the time to drive
Towards the goal post stand
Time to move the ball
Victory's so close at hand
Time to rock, time to go
Here to win, time to roll
To be in first place
You gotta play smart
To beat the other guy
You gotta have heart
Time to rock, time to go
Here to win, time to roll
(lead)
From the soles of your feet
You gotta hold your ground
Head to head feel the force
One each and every down
Time to rock, time to go
Here to win, time to roll
(lead)
In the end you made them crawl
You had all the right tools
You won fair, you won sqaure
You played by the rules
Time to rock, time to go,
Here to win, time to roll
Time to rock, time to go,
Here to win, time to roll
