(Verse 1)
Dust settling down on a Friday night Underneath the glow of the stadium light We wore the red, we wore the black and white. Stories of the Tigers waiting to be told
Four years flew by like a West Texas wind Now we’re standing at the place where the road begins Packed up the lockers, walked through the halls Leaving our paw-prints all over these walls.
(Chorus)
So raise up a cheer for the Tiger pride
With the strength of a storm on a rolling tide
We learned how to fight, we learned how to stand The proudest tradition in all of the land Though the map takes us far from this Texas town We’ll never forget how we held it down Caps in the air, let the memories unfold Once an Anson Tiger, forever red, black and white!
(Verse 2)
From the early morning bells to the final bell ring Through the stress of the tests and the songs we would sing We leaned on each other when the days got tough Proving that a Tiger’s heart is made of tougher stuff Look at the bleachers, look at our home No matter where we run, we are never alone We got the spirit of the town in our veins Ready for the future and breaking the chains.
(Chorus)
So raise up a cheer for the Tiger pride With the strength of a storm on a rolling tide We learned how to fight, we learned how to stand The proudest tradition in all of the land Though the map takes us far from this Texas town We’ll never forget how we held it downCaps in the air, let the memories unfold Once an Anson Tiger, forever red, black and white!
(Bridge)
The tassels are turning, the diplomas are earned We take every single lesson that we ever learned The world’s gonna hear us, they’ll hear the roar As we step across the threshold and open the door!(Guitar Solo - Energetic and Triumphant)
(Chorus)
So raise up a cheer for the Tiger pride With the strength of a storm on a rolling tide We learned how to fight, we learned how to stand The proudest tradition in all of the land Though the map takes us far from this Texas town We’ll never forget how we held it down Caps in the air, let the memories unfold Once an Anson Tiger, forever red, black and white!
(Outro)
Yeah, forever red black and white…Let the Tiger roar.Class of 2026, it's time to soar.(Fade out on a strong drum beat)
