Back in high school when I played football was when I first heard of this song, this song has so much meaning to me and expresses everything you think and feel about being a senior playing football. I like this song mostly because it brings back the best memories I have ever had in high school. My last few games, the team would go to the cafe and eat like every Friday. Instead of eating and then leaving we would stay a little bit later and watch the music video and the day of our last game it brought tears to my eyes.
The starting out first two paragraphs are the most meaning full me!
When I feel that chill, smell that fresh cut grass/
I'm back in my helmet, cleats and shoulder pads/
Standing in the huddle listening to the call/
Fans going crazy for the boys of fall/
They didn't let just anybody in that club/
Took every ounce of heart and sweat and blood/
To get to wear those game day jerseys down the hall/
Kings of the school man, we're the boys of fall/
I'm back in my helmet, cleats and shoulder pads/
Standing in the huddle listening to the call/
Fans going crazy for the boys of fall/
They didn't let just anybody in that club/
Took every ounce of heart and sweat and blood/
To get to wear those game day jerseys down the hall/
Kings of the school man, we're the boys of fall/
Well it's turn and face the Stars and Stripes/
It's fighting back them butterflies/
It's call it in the air, alright yes sir we want the ball/
And it's knocking heads and talking trash/
It's slinging mud and dirt and grass/
It's I got your number, I got your back when your back's against the wall/
You mess with one man you got us all/
The boys of fall/
When it starts off by saying "when I feel that chill, I smell that fresh cut grass, I’m back in my cleat, helmet and shoulder pads, standing in the huddle listening to the call, fans going crazy for the boys of fall, etc... for about the next 11 lines it’s tough to even say because it’s all so true, and when you realize its over its sad and this song emphasizes; enjoy it while it lasts cause when it’s over its really over. I would change nothing in the song it’s all perfect for what really happens so watch the video and if you have ever played a sport you have absolutely just loved you'll understand.
