Victory In Rider Land

Off to Toronto our team did go
Prepared for the game of a lifetime,a real show
Our province went absolutely wild
Our fever ran high and that is putting it mild

The game was more than great
Winning the game seemed to be our fate
We have won and come home with the Grey Cup
We have persevered and reached for the top

Excitement is in the air
Because all Saskawonians hearts care
Football is a province game
That brings our province fame

We won in sixty six and in eighty nine
Oh ,it was so fine
We won in two thousand and seven
Our province is in absolute heaven

So as our players arrive home
From their trip from Toronto dome
With the Grey Cup in hand
We are all happy in Saskatchewan land.
