Boomer Sooner

Boomer Sooner

Boomer Sooner is the fight song for the University of Oklahoma written by Arthur M. Alden in 1905. The tune is borrowed from "Boola Boola", the fight song of Yale University. An addition was added a year later from University of North Carolina's "I'm a Tar Heel Born".

Lyrics

:Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner, :Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner, :Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner, :Boomer Sooner, O-K-U!

:Oklahoma, Oklahoma, :Oklahoma, Oklahoma, :Oklahoma, Oklahoma, :Oklahoma, O-K-U!

:I'm a Sooner born :And a Sooner bred, :And when I die :I'll be Sooner dead.

:Rah, Oklahoma! Rah, Oklahoma! :Rah, Oklahoma! O-K-U!
