Buckle down, Winsocki, buckle down
You can win, Winsocki, if you knuckle down
If you break their necks , f you make them wrecks
You can break the hex, so buckle down

Make 'em yell Winsocki, make 'em yell
You can win, Winsocki, if you give 'em hell
It you don't give in, take it on the chin
You are bound to win, if you will only buckle down

If you fight you'll chuckle at defeat
If you fight your luck'll not retreat (CHEER!!!)

Knuckle down Winsocki, knuckle down
You can win, Winsocki, if you buckle down
If you mow them down, if you go to town
You can wear the crown, if you will only buckle down
