Just after Katrina they both took a little trip
This gal from Hahnville High School and this guy from Mississipp'
Brady loves Louisiana but he really had to geaux!
Pokey said: "You storm Atlanta! I'll go take the Alamo!"

Well we won with Pat Henry and we won with the Skipper
And we won with Nick Saban and with Paul Dietzel, too
But we've lost so much with Rita and Katrina
If we wanna win again it's gotta start with LSU

They looked at the brackets and they saw the Texans there
Coach K selling Chevys, there were devils everywhere
Big Baby rounded up the Longhorns after stuffing A&M
Tyrus baptized the demons dunking every one of them

Pokey's team went and took 'em by surprise
Played 'em all close 'til halftime with the score almost tied
But in each second half the attrition took its toll
And the victory always went to the Purple and the Gold

Well we won with Pat Henry and we won with the Skipper
And we won with Nick Saban and with Paul Dietzel, too
But we've lost so much with Rita and Katrina
If we wanna win again it's gotta start with LSU

The Governor placed a call to Georgia, another call to San Antone
And said to meet her at the PMAC, gave congrats to our Simone
She said she didn't need to tell 'em because they already knew
This is bigger than each one of them and even LSU

'Cause never in the history of our state or country, too
Has there been such devastation, so many people feeling blue
You can prove our mettle and make our spirits swell
Just go to Bean Town and Indy and really give 'em ... Well

We we won with Pat Henry and we won with the Skipper
And we won with Nick Saban and with Paul Dietzel, too
But we've lost so much with Rita and Katrina
If we wanna win again it's gotta start with LSU

Wow, great poem. And LSU made it to the Final Four? I�ve been living in a bit of a cave lately. Didn�t know that. Congratulations and Go Cajun Crawdads! (Oh�what�s that? That�s not their name? Pardon me then.) Go Tiggers! (What? Again?) Go LSU! Beat the Brewers!

Yes, excellent poem. Smiler

What a boost that would be to the morale of many Louisianians to have the men and women Tigers will the NCAA tournaments. It's already great that they made it to the Final Four; the rest would be icing on the cake.

Geaux Tigers?

They're gone, and it's because they played poorly. Too bad. Maybe next year. Wink

Still, it was great that both men and women made the final four.
