Freddie's Dead Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 This was done on a bet. I forget the game, but Marv said if they won, he'd write a fight song, and he did. Many here have denigrated the song in the past, but being a musician and frustrated song writer, it's a pretty good fight song. I wish anything I ever wrote was as good. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marv's Neighbor Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Love Marv, but Marv, don't quit your day job! This is just pitiful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 The best reaction I saw was a letter in the BN sports section the following Sunday that said: Marv to Bills "Win or I'll sing again" 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Could have taken a verse or two and put it to band music and it could have been our "Hail to the Redskins" and got rid of the Shout song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 And it was at that moment that Bob Dylan knew he was going to pass on Marv's offer to write a song for his next album. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steptide Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Wgr played this a few times during the season last year. Love Marv, but everytime I hear it, it makes me cringe. It's so terrible, but at the same time that's what makes it great 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 This was as bad as Talking Proud. Sad the youngins have no idea what I’m saying. That was the Joe Cribbs era. Love that Marv was willing to do it. Not that it sounded good as it didn’t. At least he was a good sport. Id rather hear his mini speeches, where would you want to be, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That lost bet was everywhere for years following the performance. Pretty sure it was even the theme song of the old Marv Levy Show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 (edited) This has been discussed on the board frequently and is a fun part of Bills history. I'm shocked that folks haven't heard of it. Makes me wonder if people think I am making it up when I post the lyrics in pregame threads.
