The Lyrics

I’m going back home
I’m going back home today
I’m going back home
The Happy Valley way
I’m going back home
To see the action there is
At old Penn State
(Penn State)

I’m going back there (there)
To mix in with the crowd
I’m going walking (walk)
To go shopping downtown
My phone is ringing (ring)
Playing the good fight song
Of old Penn State
(Penn State)

I’m revisiting the best four years of my life
Because I’m at
Because I’m at dear old Penn State
When it’s Saturday I’m rooting for the Nittany Lions
They will win it
Win it for dear old Penn State

I’m going back home
I’m going back home today
I’m going back home
The Happy Valley way
I’m going back home
To see all the action
At old Penn State
(Penn State)

Penn State
Penn State
Penn State

Here I am ready to go back home

Hey I’ve made my mark
I feel nostalgic
About the best four years of my life
Hey it’s Bruce “Pepper” Clark
What a great place this is
It’s a legendary place here
Beast of the East
Give it at least
An eighty-five

Now you know this place had the best four years of my life
Because I’m at
Because I’m at dear old Penn State
When it’s Saturday I’m rooting for the Nittany Lions
I like blue and white
But I love dear old Penn State

I’m storming the field
After a big home victory
Singing the song
Of our alma mater
And ringing the Victory Bell
After the Lions won it
For old Penn State
(Penn State)

And I’m going back home
I’m going back home today
I’m going back home
The Happy Valley way
And we can drop in
On all the action there is
At old Penn State
(Penn State)

And I’ll shop til I drop
And take pictures of the Nittany
There’s blue and white balloons
All just for me from the Nittany
Come home, back home, I’m home
At dear old
Pennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaate

Penn State
