Does anyone have any novelty football songs? The ones usually made by local personalities about NFL teams or players. I've only got one track and it's a Christmas song called
The 12 Days of a Cleveland Browns Christmas. I'd like to put together a compilation of these songs. If anyone has any, could you
email an mp3 of the song to me? I'll post the compilation before football season ends (if I get anything).
Speaking of football, Sunday is the Pittsburg Steelers vs the Cleveland Browns. I've been a life-long Steelers fan while my wife roots for the
Clowns Browns. It should be a fun afternoon.

Erick, you should check out The Mad Music Archive....you can do a search there using any number of football-related terms and possibly find at least information (if not individual downloads) for songs you need. Just on the search I did for "football" I got 30 song title matches.

I have the song/rap that Walter Payton & Refrigerator Perry did, called 'Together'. I'd be glad to get that to you if you want it.

Universal Horror - Thank you for the link.
Jon - I'd love to have that song, thank you.
I don't have actual mp3's of any of these, but I have heard a few of them.
There's "The Big Orange" by Andy Griffith. Not a song, but it's a football-related comedy routine.
There's the 'Superbowl Shuffle' that came out some time in the '80's, a rap song done by the Bears.
Goldie Hawn did a movie about being coach of a high school football team... I think it's the one IMDB has listed as 'Wildcats' aka 'First and Goal' The closing credits have a pretty cute song about football done by Goldie & the players. Maybe you could rip it off the dvd.
The 'Harvard Fight Song' by Tom Lehrer.. not specifically football oriented, but it's pretty goofy.
Those sound funny....yeah, I recall the Superbowl Shuffle when it was out. Yes, that Goldie movie is indeed called WILDCATS.
"The Cool Ghoul's Phantasmagorical Funky Fonograf Record" has a piece called "Poem And Fite Song". The "Fite Song" portion (you'd have to edit it apart from the "Poem" portion of the track) is a great football cheer takeoff that would be suitable on your compilation.
Just remembered another one - the same year as the Bears' 'Super Bowl Shuffle', their opponents in the SB - the Patriots'- put out their own record.
As I recall it was basically a session singers affair, celebrating the team. I think it was called 'New England, the Patriots and Me'. Or something like that. Has to be floating around somewhere online.
