Hank Williams, Jr – All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over (For Monday Night Football)
(1989-2011)

Well it’s Monday night
And we’re ready to strike!
Our Special Forces are in full flight
We’re coming by air and on the ground
Monday night football’s takin over the town
We gotta get ready, we gotta get right
It’s gonna be a battle in the NFL tonight

So get ready
I mean get ready

Are you ready for some football?
A Monday night invasion
Yeah, this is “Rocking” Randall Hank
With a special elect for the nation
Here comes the hits, the bangs, the blocks and the spikes
Cause all my rowdy friends drop in on Monday night

Let it fly boy

Now they’re ready for Hank and across the land
The boys in the trenches, the fans in the stands
Sounds like thunder when they snap the ball
The back blasts through a hole in the wall
The receivers are rockin’ on down the line
The defense covers, its pressure time
The guys with cannons, the way they throw
ABC’s got the most explosive show

Are you ready for some football?
A Monday night party
Yes, sir, this is Hank and my mission is to get this whole thing started
You know helmets crashin’, the crowd is psyched
Cause all my rowdy friends are back for Monday night

Everybody’s a fan
This is the biggest party, man
We got Frank, and Al, and Dan
They gonna get it kick-started

Yeah and the crews all settled, the time it is right
All my rowdy friends are here on Monday night

Who among you remembers that song and the feeling it brought to you? Well, it’s the same for Friday nights in America from late August until early December. There’s no feeling like it in the world.

So, wherever you are, grab yourself a bag of popcorn, an ice cold drink, and go out and watch some high school football tonight.

"People ask me what I do in the winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring."
