Their is a funny time and unique destiny which exists in the South, imagery fills your mind of ghosts and blue and grey and battlefields from Chickamagua to the Vicksburg siege. but more crucial and more important is the state of Tennessee. this state is part legend and part rapid reinforcement. it is the light that never seems to go out in the region, the place where Athens and Nashville con-incite to make Titans who roar on the football field. and on the football field their is a rich tradition of excellence.
These names are Neyland, Majors, Fulmer, and Reggie white. the names of countless titles and countless honors bestowed unto them. this is a college that peers have no equal. it is the university of Tennessee and for over 150 years it has proven itself time and time again as the College of the South. Call it New South, old South, or Modern South, we are Dixie's children reborn in a few fashion.
and the anthem to all of this is Rocky top. Not glamorous or mute in its point either,its an anthem of Tennessee as a whole state and the rallying point to where excellence responds.
It is a power anthem mixed in tradition, not a rock song with hedonistic overtones.
No ,no this is an anthem of my ancestors, my forefathers, and my future children.
On of which I am proud to look upon and be proud of.
Kick arses and be proud indeed, thats what Tennessee is all about.
That and tradition too
