| Now hearken back that fateful night
Not many moons ago When the Cowboys smashed the Jayhawks An all-time Jayhawk low |
| When prognosticators panned them
And dropped them from the poll And fans were in dissension They wanted heads to roll |
| It seemed it was the darkest
Time in Jayhawkville They claimed the Cheno had no heart And Luke Axtell was ill |
| And Boschee was just plain ol' bad
And Big Butt fans won't hoot And Collison fouled way too much And Kenny couldn't shoot |
| And Nicky B was careless
Talentless and wild And Hinrich wasn't ready And Marlon was too mild |
| And Ashante played too much
Or was it not enough And Gooden couldn't pass the ball And faded when it got rough |
| And Carey was a real nice guy
But he really couldn't play And Lester's a distraction And Nooner's in the way |
| And Crider was a wasted pick
And Roy had lost his touch The average fan knew more than him Oh, yeah and he substituted way too much |
| And the team was way too young
Too green and immature As soon a tourney time was here An early exit was for sure |
| They played okay at Allen
Where the home fans made the noise But as soon as they were on the road They seemed to lose their poise |
| You'd think that after OSU
Their fans would surely balk But the Nation was about to see What it meant to be a Jayhawk |
| The fans all rallied round
To offer up their cheers As the Jayhawks struggled game to game Against opponents jeers |
| But just when it seemed darkest
The real Jayhawks came forth They gradually improved And won the Big 12 north |
| They had two early losses
In Columbia and Ames But at home they held their serve And brought honor to their names |
| Like Phoenix from the ashes
They gradually improved From 6th place in the Big 12 race Up the charts they moved |
| They suffered humiliation
With class and dignity But they finally learned their lesson And started on their spree |
| The fans they were frustrated
But filled with Jayhawk pride And even at the bottom They never left their side |
