Let’s Go Pirates

You got it 👍 — every “Bucs” is now “Bucks.”

Here’s the clean, full version with that change locked in.

“Forever a Buck” (Legends & Loyalty Edition)

Verse 1

From the river to the bridge on a summer night,

PNC Park glowing black and gold under city lights.

Coca-Cola in my cup, peanuts in my hand,

Nachos dripping cheese while the whole crowd stands.

Cotton candy memories, sweet like the hope,

Every season starts fresh, yeah I still cope.

Pre-Chorus

They ask me why I still believe,

I say this city never leaves.

Chorus

I bleed black and gold, yeah I always will,

Through every heartbreak, every uphill hill.

No matter the record, no matter the year,

My heart’s with the Bucks loud and clear.

Raise it up, let it cut loose—

Forever loyal, LET’S GO BUCKS!

Verse 2 (Now & Next)

Oneil Cruz sending rockets into the night,

Bryan Reynolds steady, always doing it right.

Then the lights go low and the roar gets tense,

You feel the moment, feel the difference—

Paul Skenes on the mound bringing thunder and flame,

Fastballs screaming, changing the game.

Verse 3 (Royalty)

But before all that, let me speak their names,

The legends who built this house of fame.

Roberto Clemente—grace, heart, and pride,

Played the game the right way, lived bigger than the lines.

Willie Stargell—power, leadership, soul,

Pops held the team when the pressure was cold.

Mazeroski’s swing still echoes in time,

A city held its breath—then lost its mind.

Pre-Chorus

Different eras, same black and gold,

Same loyalty passed down, never sold.

Chorus

I bleed black and gold, yeah I always will,

From history’s glory to the rebuild hill.

From Clemente’s class to today’s fight,

This love don’t fade—it survives every night.

Hands up, voices cut loose—

Pittsburgh forever—LET’S GO BUCKS!

Bridge

Pierogies racing down the warning track lane,

Whole crowd laughing even through the pain.

Sticky fingers, cold drinks, seats by the rail,

High-fives with strangers when the last pitch sails.

And when the night ends, look up and see—

Fireworks over the Three Rivers, wild and free.

Final Chorus / Outro

Gold sparks lighting the sky above us,

Reflections dancing on the rivers that love us.

From legends past to the future we trust,

Black and gold hearts—no quitting in us.

Royal blood, loyal guts—

One voice, one city—LET’S GO BUCKS! LET’S GO BUCKS! 🎆🖤💛
