Here are the lyrics (in case you want to sing along).
It’s a great day to be a Hawk! Feel that rhythm when we walk. Sunlight spilling bright and sharp. Brass and heartbeats set the spark. It’s a great day…hear it ring. Ride that groove, let the trumpets sing. Every step hits right on time. It’s a great day…to feel that climb.
It’s a great day to be a Hawk! Snap that backbeat, let it talk. Palm trees swaying in the heat...swinging every single street. It’s a great day...rising fast. Future’s shining, built to last. Wings up high...don’t delay...it’s a great, great day.
When the horns go high, we rise higher. Drums roll in, spark the fire. When the whole band locks in tight, day turns into burning light. No holding back, no standing small, hear that rhythm call us all. Build it up don’t let it stop...a great day…..a great day….a great day……
It’s a great day to be a Hawk! Let the whole band rock the block. Trumpets blaze and the trombones shout. Saxophones spinning inside out. It’s a great day to feel that spark, black and orange lighting the dark. Hold that note...don’t let it drop!
It’s a great day to be a Hawk!
