From the first to last whistle
Two guys, battle out on a big mat.
From the first to the last handshake
Two guys battle with sportsmanship.
From the first to the last takedown
Two guys battle for school pride.

Two wrestlers battling out
Top, bottom, and standing
Neither wrestler will give up
And both are a determined
Determined to win
But someone has to lose

One wrestler will come out victorious
The other will lose with pride.
Only 3 periods will decide the winner
And the same 3 will decide the loser
Many different ways you can lose
But you lose with respect

And when you win
You win with respect
