Текст песни The Cornhusker (Come a Runnin Boys) (The Killigans) с переводом

Come a runnin' boys

Don’t you hear that noise like the thunder in the sky

How it rolls along in a good old song

From the sons of Nebraski

Now it’s coming near with a rising cheer

That will sweep all foes away

So with all our vim

We are bound to win and we’re going to win today

In the days of old

Johnny Bender bold would just take that ball in hand

And with Benedict right in front of him

They would set sail for the land

Then Doc Eager too with a chosen few

Would be all round everywhere

And before they’d quit they would calmly sit

Down behind that goalpost there

For Nebraska and the scarlet

For Nebraska and the cream

Though they go thru many battles

Our colors still are seen

And so in contest and in victory

We will wave them for the team

And will always stir a Cornhusker

The scarlet and the cream

When the sun is bright

And the fields are ripe with the tassel on the corn

You can hear it grow in the evening glow

Or the hush of early morn

In the state so fair 'tis the very air that inspires us with a zest

That in any fray we will not dismay

But we’ll do our level best
