    A personal thank you to the 2000 NCAA Basketball champions. They gave the best graduation present we could ever hope for. I put this together really FAST! I could clean up vocals if there is an interest.(This version is revised a little bit)Additionally, this song was featured on "88.9, The Impact's" "Sit or Spin" program. The song was played and then critiqued by a panel of my peers. After a lengthy dicussion, 5 of 6 people thought it worthy for Rotation.

    Story Behind the Song
    This is my second song ever recorded.

    Lyrics
    Four years back I had an choice to make
    Michigan like my father, or go to state
    the choice was hard, but I knew what to do
    bear green and white up at MSU
    When I arrived, it was so sweet
    lots of alcohol and the welcome week
    couple months went by, and then we all screamed
    for the 1997 B-Ball Team


    *******************************************
    M - S - U plays a fine game of Basketball
    If you'd like to get yo' ass kicked give us a call
    If you see us coming around to your town,
    get on yo knees boy cause soon you will be bowing down
    *******************************************


    Few seasons past, we're pretty good
    we rocked up our opponents neighborhoods
    in the final four, after how many years?
    I'll toast to that, go grab me a beer
    A turn for the worse, unfortunately
    A team called Duke, halted the party
    was it the end, no not all
    experience baby, we'll whomp em all next fall


    *******************************************
    A year gones by and we showed them all what was up
    Won the big ten tourney, and we never let up
    Found our way to the top there once again
    We refuse to lose, and won't come back without a win
    *******************************************


    Final Game, the pressures on
    we never let up, we were always on
    We took three steps, while they only took two
    Yabba dabba dee, dabba da, dabba doo
    Mateen got hurt, he didn't care
    ten minutes went by, he was back in there
    full of pride, not about to lose that chance
    we won the title and how he danced


    *******************************************
    I thank the team for giving me the best present of the year
    I graduate in May with Mateen, Mo Pete, and Granger
    In twenty years when looking back at the choice that I had to make
    I'm so I glad I chose to Sparty on up here at Michigan State
    *******************************************
