We were raised with a stick and a pair of blades,
On the ice we cut our teeth,
We took our knocks in the penalty box,
Our mother was the referee,
This sport was here before we came,
It will be here when we're gone,
The games in our blood and our bloods in the game,
Lay us down under a frozen pond,
We will fight to the end,
We will stand and defend our flag flying high and free,
We were born a child of the strong and WILD,
In the State,
The State of Hockey,
A big blue line runs around our state,
A line that can't be crossed,
The day they try to take this game,
Is the day the gloves come off,
We will fight to the end,
We will stand and defend our flag flying high and free,
We were born a child of the strong and WILD,
In the State,
The State of Hockey!
