Song Description

a humorous combination of rap and polka, this song celebrates the Minnesota Vikings

Lyrics

Minnesota Vikings this our year
Almost make me jump and cheer
Not to try and cause mishap
Just doing the Purple Polka Rap

Some folks say its just a fad
But this years team is not too bad
Play the game without a flaw
Lions and Packers and Bears oh yah

Minnesota Vikings thats the name
Getting better every game
Last game sure was a heckuva note
Thats what were so excited about

Minnesota Vikings this our year
Almost make me jump and cheer
Not to try and cause mishap
Just doing the Purple Polka Rap

Everybody watching games
Grandma knows the players names
She even called her nephew Skip
And cancelled this years hunting trip

One time I was in the crowd
And in that dome boy it was loud
Viking fans are loudest yet
Do they affect the game? You bet

Minnesota Vikings this our year
Almost make me jump and cheer
Not to try and cause mishap
Just doing the Purple Polka Rap

Now we shout from heart and soul
Vikings going Super Bowl
Whos to say the Vikings cant
Win this one for old Bud Grant

When the Vikes go all the way
In our memory they will stay
But if we lose from what I hear
We Purple Polka Rap next year

Minnesota Vikings this our year
Almost make me jump and cheer
Not to try and cause mishap
Just doing the Purple Polka Rap

Some day just before I nap
Put my grandson on my lap
Close the generation gap
By doing the Purple Polka Rap
